India’s National Security Advisor Ajit Doval addressed the SCO meet in China on Tuesday, June 24, and said any act of terror, including cross-border terrorism, is a crime against humanity. He also called for a joint information operation to counter terrorism, separatism, and extremism.
Hold perpetrators, organisers, financiers of cross border terror to account, he said and called for shunning double standards in fight against terrorism.
In his address at a conclave of top security officials of the SCO, Doval said India is “deeply concerned” about the continued threat from UN-proscribed terror groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Al Qaeda, ISIS and its affiliates.
The NSA also said New Delhi launched Operation Sindoor to dismantle terror infrastructure and deter terrorists from carrying out attacks in India following the Pahalgam terror strike.
