Modi Thanks UNGA for Adopting Indian Resolution to Honor Fallen Peacekeepers
New Delhi is among the three largest contributors of soldiers in UN peacekeeping missions, having taken an active role in nearly 50 assignments under the international organization's flag.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed the UN General Assembly's adoption of a draft resolution introduced by India that paves the way for establishing a Memorial Wall for peacekeepers who lost their lives during conflict missions.
"The Resolution received a record 190 co-sponsorships. Grateful for everyone's support," Modi tweeted on Thursday.
The congratulatory remarks came after the resolution named "Memorial wall for fallen United Nations peacekeepers" received overwhelming support in the UNGA after it was introduced by India's Permanent Representative Ruchira Kamboj.
While introducing the draft of the resolution in the UNGA in New York, Kamboj pointed out that over a million troops from 125 countries participated in more than 70 peacekeeping missions around the world.
Approximately 4,200 of them have been killed while serving the UN flag during these missions.
"Even today, over 80,000 peacekeepers serve in various conflict zones, enduring harsh conditions and risking their lives to keep the peace," she added. "These brave men and women — who came from different parts of the world, practise different faiths and follow different cultures — were united by the cause of peace, their spirit of selfless sacrifice, professionalism and resolve."
The UNGA's latest initiative also drew a reaction from External Affairs Minister
S. Jaishankar."India piloted the adoption of a Resolution in the UN General Assembly to establish a Memorial Wall for fallen Peacekeepers. The Resolution received a record 190 co-sponsorships, a testimony to faith in India's contributions and intent," Jaishankar concluded.
