We are very happy that text-based negotiations were adopted. We have to include more developing nations in the decision making structures of the Security Council: Sushma as per ANI

If security, development and international peace is to be maintained then Security Council needs to be reformed. As a woman and elected MP, it is my conviction that there is a shortcut to social change - empower the girl child: Sushma.

Sushma: After 2008 Mumbai attacks, many people from different nations died. It's shameful for the international community that terrorist responsible for this is still at loose. Talks and terror do not go hand in hand.

India has been facing terrorism for 25 years. New York has faced terrorism as well. But nations supporting terrorism haven't been dealt with. Nations who support, train, help, terrorists need to be stood against by UN. We are still deciding what "terrorism" means, still defining it. There is no "good" terrorism or "bad" terrorism: Sushma

The future of the international community is now dependent on how we respond to the greatest threat that we face today which is terrorism: Sushma

Exercising India's Right of Reply during the General Debate of 70th session of UN General Assembly here late yesterday, First Secretary in the Permanent Mission of India to the UN Abhishek Singh termed as "regrettable" Pakistan once again choosing to "misuse" the High Level Segment of the UN General Assembly session to "distort reality and portray a false picture of the challenges in our region".
Sharif, in his address to the General Assembly earlier in the day, had said that Pakistan is the "primary victim" of terrorism.
Singh retorted sharply that "in truth, it is actually a victim of its own policies of breeding and sponsoring terrorists. The heart of the matter is a state that regards the use of terrorism as a legitimate instrument of statecraft. The world watches with concern as its consequences have spread beyond its immediate neighbourhood.
Sharif had used the podium of the UN General Assembly to propose a four-point peace initiative with India, which includes steps to demilitarise Kashmir and an unconditional mutual withdrawal from Siachen Glacier.
On Sharif describing Pakistan as the "primary victim" of terrorism, Vikas Swarup said "Pakistan is not primary victim of terrorism but of its own policies. It is in fact the prime sponsor of terrorism."
