State funeral for Marshal Arjan Singh

Amid rising tensions in West Asia, a rare political consensus has emerged in India. Congress MP Manish Tewari has openly supported the government’s approach, stating that the ongoing conflict is “not our war.” He underlined that India has always been a marginal player in the region and must act with caution. The focus, he said, should remain on strategic autonomy—protecting national interests while avoiding entanglement in global conflicts. India has consistently called for dialogue and diplomacy, even as it engages with multiple stakeholders to secure energy supplies and ensure regional stability. Adding to this, Shashi Tharoor has also endorsed the government’s stance, highlighting the importance of international law and sovereignty. This bipartisan backing strengthens India’s position as it navigates a volatile geopolitical landscape. The message is clear—India will stay balanced, engaged, and focused on its own priorities.
