Underlining that terrorism is a global challenge against humanity, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Sunday said the world should come together to fight this menace.

Birla made these remarks while addressing a press conference in the national capital, adding that India has always been clear about where it stands on the issue of terrorism.

The Indian government does not support terrorism in any form or manifestations. We have clearly stated that terrorism has no place in our country,” the Lok Sabha Speaker said a day after the three-day P20 Summit, hosted in the national capital, ended.

Emphasising India’s unequivocal stand against terrorism, he reaffirmed the country’s commitment to global peace and security.

The Speaker also underlined the importance of not discussing the internal matters of any country in the highest legislative body, emphasising that such discussions should only happen when the issue has international implications.

Highlighting the achievements of the P20 summit, Birla said the discussions at the summit covered a wide array of topics, including sustainable energy, environmental considerations, climate change and the empowerment of women.

“India, being a leader in addressing climate change, showcased its commitment to achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) before 2030, emphasizing carbon emission reduction and renewable energy development,” Birla said.
