As PM Modi lands at UN China blocks ban on 26/11 accused

Overriding repeated pleas by India to rise above political differences and address the issue of terrorism, China Tuesday formally blocked a proposal at the UNSC for designating LeT commander and 26/11 accused Sajid Mir as global terrorist. The move seemed timed deliberately with Modi’s first state visit to the US and came hours before he landed in New York to lead the International Day of Yoga celebrations at the UN.
