## How the sides framed it

### Left

- The Week's report led on the BRICS nations jointly condemning the Pahalgam attack and rejecting double standards in counter-terrorism efforts. The digest stated that the declaration condemned the attack in the strongest terms and mentioned the rejection of double standards.

### Centre

- Greater Kashmir and Hindustan Times, both full reports, led on the BRICS condemnation of the Pahalgam attack and the call for zero tolerance towards state-sponsored cross-border terrorism. Hindustan Times also reported that LeT and its proxy TRF, backed by the Pakistani state, carried out the attack. Live Mint's digest highlighted the declaration's takeaways on UN reform, global trade, Gaza, AI, and the Pahalgam terror attack.

### Right

- Reports from the right-rated outlets focused on the BRICS declaration's condemnation of the Pahalgam attack and its stance on terrorism. Rediff.com, CNBC-TV18, NDTV, Times of India, ABP News, The Print, and India Today all highlighted the condemnation and the call for zero tolerance.
