United Nations: India has given a big message to the world from the United Nations platform. On Friday, on the United Nations platform, India said that India has been the birthplace of the four major religions of Hindu, Buddhist, Jains and Sikhs. India is a country of diversity and plurality. There is no discrimination against anyone here. The Indian representative said in the UN that we also have more than 200 million Muslim population. We condemn discrimination against any religion. India has said that it stands with members of the United Nations in condemning the incidents of religious intolerance against Muslims.
During this time, India underlined the need to accept the fact that religious discrimination is a widespread challenge that is affecting followers of all religions. Permanent representative of India at the United Nations, P Harish said on Friday, “India is a country of diversity and plurality. We are home to followers of almost every major religion of the world and India has been the birthplace of four world religions, ie Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikh religion. More than 200 million citizens follow Islam, so India is one of the largest Muslim population countries in the world.
Religious fear is a threat to society
Harish, while addressing an informal meeting of the full session at the United Nations General Assembly to compete with Islamophobia (showing unnecessary fear about Islam), said that building a world free of religious discrimination, hatred and violence has been the way of life of India since time immemorial. The Indian ambassador said, “We are united with members of the United Nations in condemning the incidents of religious intolerance against Muslims. However, it is also necessary to identify that religious discrimination is a widespread challenge that affects followers of all religions. “He said,” We firmly believe that the path of meaningful progress lies in accepting that religious fear in various forms is a threat to the fabric of our diverse, global society. “
India condemned attacks on places of worship and religious communities
Harish started his address on Friday with congratulations on the holy month of Ramadan as well as wishing Holi, because this festival of colors is celebrated all over India and the world. India expressed concern over the worrying increase in violence targeting places of worship and religious communities. Harish said that it can only be faced by all member countries with continuous commitment to the principle of equal respect for all religions and concrete action. He said, “All countries should be committed to treat all their citizens equally and should not follow policies that promote religious discrimination. We should also ensure that the education system does not promote conservatism or extremism.
Gutres gave this message
Harish said that since the international community is celebrating this day, it is important to remember that “the fight against Islamophobia is inseparable from the widespread struggle against religious discrimination in all forms.” He urged the nations to work in the direction of a future where every person, whatever religion, could live with dignity, security and honor. The United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution sponsored by 60 member countries of the Islamic Cooperation Organization (OIC). Under this, 15 March was declared as International Day to deal with Islamophobia. On this occasion, United Nations Secretary -General Antonio Gutaras said in his message that Muslims from all over the world come together to celebrate the holy month of Ramadan, “Many people do so because of fear – discrimination, boycott and even fear of violence.
