Terrorism needs to be tackled with global cooperation, says President Pranab Mukherjee

New Delhi, Feb 09 (ANI): President Pranab Mukherjee said the international community needs to assert itself and tackle terrorism by taking concerted, coordinated and determined action. Addressing the sixth conference of Ambassadors and High Commissioners in New Delhi, the President recalled the horrific killings of innocent hostages in Syria, the attack on the media in Paris and the tragic killing of school children and their teachers in Peshawar, Pakistan. Calling terrorism an industry of evil, Mukherjee said that it was not just a threat to peace and security but an attack on humanity as a whole and civilization. Mukherjee said India demonstrated dynamism and bold leadership by inviting leaders of SAARC countries to attend the swearing-in of the new government in May last year.
