Security infra bolstered to fight terrorism: Shah
NEW DELHI: Union home minister Amit Shah on Friday condemned countries that shelter terror groups and their leaders, saying protecting a terrorist was equivalent to promoting terrorism, in what was seen as an indirect reference to Pakistan and China.
Addressing the first session of the No Money for Terror Conference in New Delhi, Shah also said that the threat of terrorism “cannot” and “should not” be linked to any religion, nationality or group.
“We also recognise that the threat of terrorism cannot and should not be linked to any religion, nationality, or group. To confront terrorism, we have made significant progress in fortifying the security architecture, as well as the legal and financial systems”, he told the gathering of delegates from 77 countries and 16 international agencies.
