Kabul: Amid Taliban violence in Afghanistan, India has called Pakistan a haven for terrorists without naming it in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). India's permanent representative to the United Nations and president of the UNSC for august TS Tirumurthy has said that responsibility for those who harbor terror needs to be fixed.

Referring indirectly to Pakistan, Tirumurthy stressed on immediate destruction of terrorist sanctuaries in the region and disrupting the supply chain of terrorists to restore peace in Afghanistan. He said there is a need to ensure that Afghanistan's neighboring country and region are not threatened by terrorism, separatism, and extremism. All forms of terrorism need not be tolerated at all. He further said, "It is equally necessary to ensure that the territory of Afghanistan is not used by terrorist organizations to attack any other country. Terrorist organizations must be held accountable for material and financial assistance.

Tirumurthy asked the 15-member UNSC to take stock of the situation and decide on the international community, especially the council, and action that helps in a permanent and comprehensive ceasefire and ensure an immediate halt to violence. Any deficiency will pose a serious threat to regional peace and security.
