India has called upon the world to strengthen and intensify efforts to address terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. It said, the world is aware of nexus between terrorists and Pakistani state and military. Replying to a query on the latest videos of terror outfits in Pakistan, during media briefing in New Delhi on Friday, MEA Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, such incidents make it more glaring. He said, every nation must fight cross-border terrorism and terrorism in all its forms. Mr Jaiswal said, in every document that comes out of multilateral forums, whether it is BRICS, SCO, or anywhere else, there is strong support for combating international terrorism and there is also a reference to fighting cross-border terrorism.
Mr Jaiswal said, India welcomes the formation of a new interim Government in Nepal, led by Sushila Karki. He said, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a warm conversation with Ms Karki and reaffirmed India’s steadfast support for her efforts to restore peace and stability. The Spokesperson said, as a close neighbour, a fellow democracy and a long-term development partner, India will continue to work closely with Nepal for the well-being and prosperity of people of the two countries.
