Key Questions Answered
India strongly criticized Pakistan at the United Nations for supporting cross-border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that India has an undeniable right to protect its people and territory. BJP MP Biplab Kumar Deb stated that those who sponsor, organize, or finance terror must be held accountable and reaffirmed India's right to defend itself against cross-border attacks.
India renewed its call for the early adoption of the Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism (CCIT), a framework New Delhi first proposed in 1996. The convention aims to establish a stronger global legal structure to ensure that everyone involved in terrorism, including financial and logistical supporters, is held responsible.
During its address, India referred to the Pahalgam terror attack, in which 26 civilians were killed by The Resistance Front, described as a proxy of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba. India maintained that its subsequent counter-strikes against terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir were part of its legitimate right to respond to terrorism.
