'Condemn Terrorism in All Forms & Manifestations': At UN, India Asks World to Stand Guard Against False Narratives

News 18  

India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Ruchira Kamboj on Thursday condemned the selective condemnation of terrorist acts across the globe. India’s stand remained firm on the matter as Kamboj asked the UN assembly to criticize all forms of terrorism, whether motivated by Islamophobia, anti-Sikh, anti-Buddhist or anti-Hindu prejudices. “The tendency of categorisation of terrorism based on the motivations behind terrorist acts is dangerous and goes against the accepted principles that ‘terrorism in all its forms and manifestations should be condemned and there cannot be any justification for any act of terrorism, whatsoever’,” she said at the First Reading of the Draft Resolution on 8th Review of the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy. India on UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy The UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy is a “unique global instrument” to enhance national, regional and international efforts to counter-terrorism. The UN General Assembly reviews the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy every two years, “making it a living document attuned to Member States’ counter-terrorism priorities”.
