Country that uses terrorism as a tool should realise it is also a threat to them: Modi gives strong message to Pakistan at UNGA
New York: Indian PM Narendra Modi addressed the UN General Assembly on Saturday when he gave a strong message to Pakistan and said those using terrorism as a political tool should realise that it is also a threat to them.
"Those who are using terrorism as a political tool should understand that terrorism is equally dangerous for them," he said as he gave a strong indirect message to Pakistan without naming it.
"It should be ensured that the soil of Afghanistan should not be used for spreading terrorism and for spreading terrorist activities," he said.
"Women, children and minorities in Afghanistan need help," he said.

Modi made the remark at a time when Afghanistan was captured by Taliban insurgents last month as foreign forces started to leave the war-torn nation.
The Taliban took control over Afghanistan on Aug 15 after entering Kabul city.
The insurgents announced their government formation earlier this month.
