NEW DELHI: Reaffirming India’s unwavering commitment to human rights, foreign minister S Jaishankar said on Tuesday that India will always advocate zero tolerance for terrorism and call out any effort to normalise it.
Addressing 58th session of UNHCR, he said India has always played an active role in global promotion and protection of human rights.
“Our approach has been centered on building capacity and strengthening human resources and infrastructure in alignment with the priorities of our partners – always upholding the principles of fiscal responsibility, transparency, and sustainability. Our development partnerships with countries across the world reflects this commitment. At the same time, we have been firm and uncompromising in combating terrorism,” Jaishankar said.
“We do not merely speak of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam – the world as one family; we live by it. And today, more than ever, this perspective is urgently needed. The world continues to grapple with conflicts and crises, growing more fractured, uncertain, and unstable in the face of emerging challenges, even as it struggles to recover from recent ones,” he added.
