India slams Pakistan yet again in the United Nations !
New York (USA) – India criticised Pakistan in the United Nations saying that Pakistan harbours a most dubious track record on all aspects. The Pakistani representative in the United Nations General Assembly made lengthy remarks against India, including references to Kashmir, the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and the Shriram Temple in Ayodhya. India gave a reply on this.
Ruchira Kamboj, India’s representative to the United Nations, said,
1. As we endeavour to cultivate a culture of peace amid these challenging times, our focus remains steadfast on constructive dialogue. We thus choose to set aside the remarks from a certain delegation, which not only lack decorum but also detract from our collective efforts due to their destructive and pernicious nature.
2. India is not only the birthplace of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism, but also a stronghold for Islam, Judaism, Christianity and Zoroastrianism. It has historically been a refuge for persecuted faiths, illustrating its long-standing embrace of diversity.
3. We would strongly encourage that (Pakistani) delegation to align with the central principles of respect and diplomacy that must always guide our discussions. Or is that too much to ask of a country that harbours a most dubious track record on all aspects in itself ?
4. Terrorism stands in direct opposition to the culture of peace and the core teachings of all religions. It sows discord, breeds hostility and undermines the universal values of respect and harmony that underpin cultural and religious traditions worldwide. It is essential for Member States to work together actively to nurture a genuine culture of peace and to view the world as a united family, as my country strongly believes.
Editorial Perspective
Although India has slammed Pakistan several times in the United Nations and other global platforms, the latter does not stop brazenly speaking against India again and again. It is necessary to respond Pakistan in a language that it understands ! |
