Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi makes his points on China, Afghanistan and Pakistan at the United Nations General Assembly

<ul><li>Prime Minister Narendra Modi virtually addressed the 75th session of the <keyword id="426867" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="United-Nations-General-Assembly">United Nations General Assembly</keyword> (UNGA) at the summit in New York.</li><li>These are the highlights of PM Narendra Modi’s 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly speech. </li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/">Check out the latest news and updates on Business Insider. </a></li></ul>Addressing the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi raised the need for ‘serious introspection’ of issues by the United Nations (UN). He also called for a larger role for India to play in the global body. Modi questioned the UN, "For how long will India be kept out of the decision making structures of the UnitedNations?" “If we evaluate the performance of the UN over the last 75 years, we see several achievements. But at the same time, there have been several instances that point to the need for a serious introspection of the work of the UN,” said Modi. He also hailed India’s vaccine production at the UN and assured that the country will work with global nations for the development of the coronavirus vaccine. Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) today. Owing to the pandemic the UNGA this year is largely being held online, and PM Modi delivered a virtual address at the summit in New York. Watch the full speech here: <div type="Youtube" id="AxlMjKuSyhU" title="Prime Minister’s Address at the 75th Session of UNGA" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AxlMjKuSyhU/mqdefault.jpg"></div> These are the highlights of PM Narendra Modi’s speech: <ul><li>On the 75th UNGA, I wish all the countries on behalf of 130 core Indians. India is proud of the fact that it is a part of the UN Assembly. On this historic occasion, in this global platform to share the sentiments of 1.3 billion Indians. The world of 1945 was very different from today’s world. The global problems, solutions everything was very different. And, in this scenario, the formation of the institutions for global welfare was according to the situation of that time. Today we are in a completely different era. In this 21 century, our present and the future challenges and needs are much different from the past. </li><li>If we evaluate the performance of the UN over the last 75 years, we see several achievements. But at the same time, there have been several instances that point to the need for a serious introspection of the work of the UN. </li><li>We successfully avoided a 3rd World War, but we cannot deny the fact that there have been several other wars. Terrorist attacks have shaken the world. In these attacks, people like you and me have died. Thousands of children who could have been among us have died. Over the past 8 to 9 months, the world has been battling the Coronavirus pandemic. Where is the UN in this joint fight against the pandemic, where is its effective response?</li><li>Changes in the responses, in the processes, and in the very character of the United Nations is the need of the hour. The faith and the respect that the 1.3 billion people of India have for the UN is incomparable to other nations. But this is also true that the people of India have been waiting for this reform-process for a very long time. Today they are concerned that this process will ever reach a logical decision. For how long will India be left out of the decision making process of UN </li><li>When India was strong, we were never a threat to anyone; when we were weak, we never became a burden on the world. The country that influences the world will have to wait till when? The Ideals on which the UN was formed, and India’s very own fundamental ideology is very much the same. In the halls of the UN, one word has often been heard, “vasudhaiva kutumbakam”, the world is one family. Even at the UN, India has always preferred the welfare of the world over everything. </li><li>India is the country which has sent its brave soldiers to nearly 50 peacekeeping missions. India has lost the maximum number of its soldiers in keeping peacekeeping missions. Today every Indian aspires for its expanded role in the UN, seeing India’s contributions towards it. </li><li>India has never thought of its personal benefits but has rather given importance to the interests of the whole humankind. This philosophy has been a driving force for Indian policies. From Neighbourhood First policy to Act East policies, our views towards the Indo-Pacific, we have always thought of interests of all humankind. This also governs India’s friendship basis. When India extends the hand of friendship to someone, it is not against any other country. When India strengthens the partnership, there is no thought of forcing another country behind it. </li><li>In this challenging time of the pandemic, India’s pharma industry has sent essential medicines to more than 150 countries. As the world’s largest pharma industry country, I want to give another assurance to the global community. India’s vaccine production and vaccine delivery capability will work to take the whole humanity out of this crisis. India, along with its neighbours is now walking towards Phase III of the vaccine and the country will help all the nations in making a vaccine. </li><li>India will always raise its voice for peace, security and prosperity of the global community. India will not hesitate to speak for humanity and its enemies like terrorism, smuggling of illegal arms drugs and money laundering. Over the past few years, with the mantra of Reform-Perform-Transform, India has brought major changes in the lives of many Indians. </li><li>In just 4-5 years, it was not easy to connect more than 400 million people to the banking system, but India made it possible. Today India is among the leading countries in the world in terms of digital transactions. Today India is running a campaign to deliver drinking water from pipes to nearly 150 million homes in the villages. India also at the initial stage of connecting more than lakh villages to the internet via optical fibre. India is now moving forward with the “Self reliant India” objective. The self-reliant India campaign will also be a force multiplier for the global economy.</li><li>We are ensuring that benefits are given to every individual without any bias-ness. To promote women entrepreneurship India is making efforts on a huge scale. Indian women are being benefited the most by the world’s largest micro-financing schemes.</li></ul> SEE ALSO:<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/politics/world/news/trump-to-nominate-anti-abortion-conservative-amy-coney-barrett-to-replace-ruth-bader-ginsburg-on-the-supreme-court-according-to-multiple-reports/articleshow/78326684.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink"> Trump to nominate antiabortion conservative Amy Coney Barrett to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court, according to multiple reports</a>

PM Modi at UNGA: 'How long will India be kept out of decision-making structures of UN'

Raising his voice strongly against terror, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday that India is a country which has given the world 'Buddha' and not "yudh" (war), and that is why when it raises its voice against terror, it not only has seriousness, but also anger. Addressing the 74th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), the Prime Minister also urged the world to unite against terror. "We believe that terrorism is not a challenge for any one country, but for all the countries and the mankind as a whole. So for the sake of mankind, the world has to unite against terror," Modi said. He also said that the world should not see terror in different terms. Other highlights from Modi's speech at UNGA: India has highest number of martyrs in UN Peace Keeping Force. India working on 450 GW renewable energy goal. Today, we are running a campaign against single-use plastic in India. In the next five years, along with water conservation, we are going to make water available in 5 crore new homes. By 2022, when India will be celebrating its 75 years of independence, we would have built 2 crore new homes for the poor. India's socio-economic achievements inspiration for world. India has saved over $20 billion by clamping down on corruption.

Narendra Modi's UNGA speech calls the world to unite against terror

Pakistan Prime Minister <keyword id="6576" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nawaz-Sharif">Nawaz Sharif</keyword> made yet another attempt to bring the Kashmir issue on the world stage and moved the United Nations to resolve the over two decade old conflict between the two nuclear-armed nations. 
 During his speech at the <keyword id="426867" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="United-Nations-General-Assembly">United Nations General Assembly</keyword>, Sharif said Pakistan was making all attempts and even “going an extra mile” to resolve all the issues with India. 
 “India has posed unacceptable preconditions to engage in a dialogue. Let us be clear: talks are no favor to Pakistan. Talks are in the interest of both countries. They are essential to resolve our differences, especially the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, and to avert the danger of any escalation,” Sharif said during the <keyword id="429560" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="UNGA">UNGA</keyword>. 
 Sharif also raked up the <keyword id="2931728" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Burhan-Wani">Burhan Wani</keyword> issue and said he was a young leader murdered by Indian forces. 
 
“This indigenous uprising of the Kashmiris has been met, as usual, with brutal repression by India’s occupation force of over half a million soldiers. Over a hundred Kashmiris have been killed, hundreds, including children and infants, blinded by shotgun pellets and over six thousand unarmed civilians injured over the past two months,” he said. 
 
On the other hand, India was swift enough to take on Sharif’s tall claims and gave befitting replies to each of his statements made at the world diaspora 
 
This is what Sharif said and India’s rebuttal

India vs Pakistan at the UN General Assembly. Who said what

In a rather power-packed speech at the 71st <keyword id="6355833" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="united-nations">United Nations</keyword> General Assembly in New York, Minister for External Affairs <keyword id="6355111" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Sushma-Swaraj">Sushma Swaraj</keyword> literally tore apart Pakistan Prime Minister <keyword id="6576" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nawaz-Sharif">Nawaz Sharif</keyword>’s claims on human rights violations in Kashmir as well as its record on fighting terrorism. 
 Sharif had on 21 September sought an international probe into what he described as “extrajudicial killings” in Indian Kashmir—in a reference to the unrest in the region following the death on 8 July of Burhan Wani, who India says was a <keyword id="50913" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Hizbul-Mujahideen">Hizbul Mujahideen</keyword> group terrorist. 
Retaliating, Swaraj said- “I can only say that those accusing others of human rights violations would do well to introspect and see what egregious abuses they are perpetrating in their own country, including in Balochistan.” 
 
Mincing no words, Swaraj further said that in exchange of friendship with the neighbouring country, India always got terrorism in return — in the form of Pathankot, Uri and Bahadur Ali, and that it was time to isolate the country that has become a breeding ground for terrorists. 
She said, “Terrorists don’t have banks or factories of weapons. In that context, it is important to know who supports such terrorists? Afghanistan also raised this issue a few days back. Those who sow seeds of terrorism have to pay for it. There is no your or my terrorism – we cannot win the war against terrorism like that.” 
 
Swaraj hit out hard at Pakistan when she appealed to other nations to isolate Pakistan. “Isolate a nation that doesn’t want to be a part of the fight against terrorism. We have to isolate a country that sows, grows and sells terrorism. Such countries have to be held accountable. We have to take actions against a country that allows terrorists to hold public celebrations, without bringing them to justice. Such a country is equally responsible for terrorist activities,” Swaraj said. 
 
Kashmir is an integral part of India, she said, and will remain an integral part of India. “Pakistan should better stop dreaming about it.” 
 
Swaraj’s hard-hitting speech comes against the backdrop of heightened tensions between India and Pakistan over the decades-old Kashmir dispute that has triggered three of the four wars between the two countries. 
 The speech followed a sharp attack on Pakistan by Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword> on Saturday when he urged the people of Pakistan to “question their leadership on why, when both countries gained freedom together, while India exports software, Pakistan exports terrorists.” 
 
“I want to say that India is a ready for a war… India is a ready for a war on poverty. Let both countries fight to see who would eradicate poverty first… I want to tell the youth of Pakistan, let’s have a war on ending unemployment… I want to call out to the children in Pakistan, let’s declare war on illiteracy. Let’s see who wins. Let’s declare war on infant mortality and maternal deaths,” Modi had said in his speech at a rally in Kozhikode.

Sushma Swaraj humiliates Pakistan at UNGA, says it can stop dreaming about Kashmir

In an under-4 minute video message, India's Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword> showed <keyword id="6355833" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="united-nations">United Nations</keyword> the mirror and urged it to take a long, hard look at its "crisis of confidence" while ratcheting up the call for a new template of multilateralism that "reflects today's realities" on Day One of the United Nations high level week being live streamed to the world from the UN headquarters in New York City. <keyword id="6354642" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Modi">Modi</keyword>'s remarks came at a "high-level meeting" to commemorate the 75th anniversary of <keyword id="9097263" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="the-united-nations-general-assembly">the United Nations General Assembly</keyword>. "We cannot fight today's challenges with outdated structures without comprehensive reforms. The UN faces a crisis of confidence," Modi said in a pre-recorded message that went live at 5:30 pm EST (3 a.m. IST). "For today's interconnected world, we need a reformed multilateralism that reflects today's realities, gives voice to all stakeholders, addresses contemporary challenges and focuses on human welfare," Modi said. The introspective mood isn't novel to the United Nations, it actually reflects the zeitgeist, even from within. On Monday, the United Nations General Assembly committed itself to put "new life" into the stalled reform of the Security Council. Dressed in his trademark kurta and a leaf green vest with dark micro checks, Modi stood beside the Indian tricolour as he delivered his recorded remarks. Modi came in at number 104 in a line of more than 180 other country leaders who are turning up in set-piece frames to deliver more than 700 minutes of content on a single video loop for an ambient global audience. The Indian PM's speech was prefaced by a welcome note from TS Tirumurti, India's permanent representative to the United Nations. The UN marked its 75th anniversary in June this year at a scaled down event, because the coronavirus was already raging by then. About 50 countries signed on to <keyword id="9977838" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="the-u-n-charter">the U.N. Charter</keyword> in San Francisco on June 26, 1945. The heady combination of telecom connectivity, teleprompters and social platforms ensured that the virtual version of the UNGA got off to a smooth start, free of the unscripted moments that neither exposed conflicts not gave leaders the chance to offer the counter-view. Framed against carefully curated backdrops mostly highlighting country flags and sometimes a light touch of ornate interiors or soft focus, world leaders re-purposed their pet UNGA pitch while embracing the new format. Xi Jinping appeared in front of a painting of the Great Wall of China in the backdrop while Australia went with a live shot of the Sydney Opera House. The UNGA high-level week kicked off less than 24 hours after a new flashpoint erupted between the US and the UN over Iran sanctions. US President Donald Trump was first on the speaker list for Monday but stayed away, in a snub to the United Nations which stands as a metaphor for multilateralism in the heart of Trump's home ground New York City. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said the United Nations will not support sanctions on Iran based on the United States' demands until he gets a green light from the Security Council. ï¿½The Trump administration has declared repeatedly since Saturday that all UN sanctions against Iran have been restored, a move that will undoubtedly stir controversy during the UN's annual high-level meetings this week.

Modi tells the UN that it must fix outdated structures because its facing a crisis of confidence

So what if India-Pakistan talks failed to materialise, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=prime+minister+narendra+modi">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</a> can always trust its partners in the west. 
 
It is September again and like last year, Modi has events lined up in the US. 
 
Apart from the routine <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=UN+general+assembly">UN General Assembly</a>, the Indian prime minister will be visiting other parts of the continent and turning his tour into an opportunity to discuss several issues. 
 
Modi’s tour will begin with a transit stop in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Ireland">Ireland</a>, and he will be the first PM to visit Dublin since Jawaharlal Nehru. 
 
Apart from historical ties, Ireland holds a special attraction for India - as a tech and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=pharma">pharma hub</a>. 
 
With more than 70 Irish tech companies in India, Ireland showcases a special model: marrying <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=tech+companies">tech companies</a> with research centres. Ireland also holds lessons for India in economic recovery. The country can also be seen as a new education destination. 
After Ireland, Modi is scheduled to give his speech at the UNGA in New York. He will then fly to California, San Jose and San Francisco, where a couple of big events are planned. 
 
One of the events will focus on <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=renewable+energy">renewable energy</a>. This is important for India as during <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Paris+climate+conference">Paris climate conference</a> (COP 21) in December, India is looking to position itself as a major developer and consumer of renewable energy, as part of its plans for a cleaner planet. 
 
Like Maddsion Square, Modi will get a rockstar reception at a community event in San Francisco on September 27. 
 
Back in New York on September 28, Modi will get ready for his second summit with <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=US+president+barack+obama">US President Barack Obama</a> in one year, where the two leaders will hold strategic dialogue.

The first <keyword id="6362857" type="DEFINITION" weightage="20" keywordseo="international-yoga-day">International Yoga Day</keyword> was observed on 21 June 2015 after the United Nations approved a resolution to devote a day to focus on the invaluable benefits of this holistic wellness system -- a gift of Indian tradition to humanity. Earlier, the incumbent Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi had insisted upon the global community in a speech delivered at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on 27 September 2014 that an International Yoga Day should be adopted to promote awareness about the benefits of yoga across the world. How is International Yoga Day Celebrated? International Yoga Day is a day to spread awareness about the invaluable benefits of yoga for the holistic wellness of humans. It is not a public holiday. NGOs, universities, schools and colleges organise special events on this day to spread the message and knowledge of yoga among the masses. On the first International Yoga day, a global record was created by organising the largest yoga class ever. Yoga has its roots in India. However, for quite some time, yoga has been known to the international community with yoga classes offered by expert trainers in several countries. <keyword id="11460457" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="international-yoga-day-2021">International Yoga Day 2021</keyword> — theme International Yoga Day of this year will be celebrated on Monday, 21 June 2021.

Year on year, a special theme is announced for the International Yoga Day. The theme for the International Yoga Day 2021 is 'Yoga for well-being'. This theme has been conceived to stress on the importance of the role of yoga in the care and treatment given to Covid-19 patients during the quarantine period. The implication of the theme ‘Yoga for well-being’ is to promote the awareness regarding how the practice of Yoga can help maintain and promote the holistic health of the body, mind and spirit of every human. How to celebrate the International Yoga Day 2021 Due to the prevailing restrictions because of the pandemic, public performances and events are not possible to commemorate the Yoga Day. However, in the lines of the theme ‘Yoga for well-being’, you can arrange yoga sessions with your family. Some other activities you can plan for the day are watching yoga classes online, educating your kids about the importance of yoga, sharing your knowledge and experience about Yoga on social media platforms, reading some articles about yoga, sharing the quotes and messages about yoga.

That is yoga. Yoga is the Practice that originated in India but is practised widely throughout! Yoga does not just change the way we see things, It transforms the person who sees. This yoga is not possible, for the one who eats too much, or who does not eat at all; who sleeps too much, or who keeps awake. Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom. Happy soul, a fresh mind, and a healthy body. All three can be achieved with yoga! For me, yoga is not just a workout – it’s about working on yourself. YOGA is the gateway to happiness that the body needs in daily life! Yoga without requiring to be paid pays you with sound health leading to great wealth! Just believe in yourself. Even if you don’t pretend that you do and, and some point, you will. Yoga is the only key to be fit and it’s essential to do it daily to keep your mind stress free! Yoga is not about touching your toes, it’s about what you learn on the way down. Yoga is a light, which once lit will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter your flame. True meditation is about being fully present with everything that is–including discomfort and challenges. It is not an escape from life. Yoga is the methodology with which to unveil the miracle that exists right in front of our faces and inside ourselves. Inculcate the habit of practicing yoga in your life! The gift of learning to meditate is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this lifetime. Exercises are like prose, whereas yoga is the poetry of movements. Once you understand the grammar of yoga; you can write your poetry of movements. Yoga is almost like music in a way; there’s no end to it. Yoga is the dance of every cell with the music of every breath that creates inner serenity and harmony. Yoga is a light which once lit will never dim, the better your practice the brighter your flame. Be a part of International Yoga day to draw more and more people towards practising Yoga! Live long and healthy life. Each aasan a day keeps illness away. Enjoy yoga! Yoga is the perfect opportunity to be curious about who you are Yoga is all about creating a balance in your life. It is about balancing your senses, balancing your body, soul and mind in order to live healthy and live in peace. Transcend from the state of being in the state of sorrow to that of happiness with Yoga! When you embrace yoga, you are actually accepting the good thing around you. Happy Yoga Day to you. The nature of yoga is to shine the light of awareness into the darkest corners of the body. Discover your inner peace with Yoga! Yoga is all about striking a balance in life and therefore, you must make it a part of your life. Yoga happens beyond the mat, anything you do with attention to how you feel is doing yoga. Releasing stress and anger by practicing Yoga! A photographer gets people to pose for him. A yoga instructor gets people to pose for themselves. Yoga means addition. Addition of energy, strength and beauty to body, mind and soul. Yoga Improves Immunity by freeing you from toxins! Yoga is a mirror to look at ourselves from within. You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state.
