Indian delegation reaffirms anti-terror stance during Liberia visit

An all-party Indian parliamentary delegation led by Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Eknath Shinde is on a three-day visit to Liberia as part of India’s global outreach to reinforce its message of zero tolerance towards terrorism.

According to a statement issued by the Indian Embassy in Monrovia, the delegation met with members of the Indian community in Liberia on Sunday, emphasizing India’s firm commitment to combat terrorism in all its forms.

“The delegation members conveyed the collective will of India to fight terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and the support received from the international community in this endeavor. They also appreciated the diaspora’s role in strengthening India’s friendship with Liberia,” the statement said.

The delegation was welcomed upon arrival in Monrovia on Saturday by Ambassador of India to Liberia Manoj Bihari Verma, Representative and Chairman of the Executive Committee Sekou S. Kanneh, Prince A. Toles of the Liberian House of Representatives, and members of the Indian community.

As part of their visit, the delegation paid floral tributes at the grave of former Liberian President William V.S. Tubman, widely revered as the ‘Father of Modern Liberia.’ They also visited the National Museum, which stands as a symbol of Liberia’s resilience and cultural heritage.
