India’s zero tolerance against terrorism – S Jaishankar

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said in the meeting that India has the full right to take action against terrorism to protect its own people. (India should not take action against terrorists after a terrorist attack, but before the attack, it should continuously attack and destroy the terrorist places in Pakistan, so that the lives of Indians, that is, Hindus, will not be lost ! – Editor) India will continue to exercise this right. We have zero tolerance against terrorism. The victims of terrorism and the spreaders of terrorism should not be seen in the same light.
