Nations should decide on a single definition of terrorism, says Shah

All nations have to decide on a single definition of terrorism, as there could not be good terrorism or bad terrorism, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Monday.

The Union Home Minister was speaking on ‘Security Beyond Tomorrow: Forging India’s Resilient Future’ at the event organised by ORF.

On this occasion, he also launched the ORF Foreign Policy Survey.

“Jammu and Kashmir, Left Wing Extremism and North East were the three main hotspots of terrorism in the country. The Narendra Modi government has made a major crackdown on these three identified hotspots of terrorism in the country. And we have successfully achieved it,” he said.

These hotspots were disturbing peace in the country for 35 years but after Narendra Modi government came into the power in 2014, there has been a significant downfall in cases of terrorism,” he said.

“We have asked other nations to define a single definition of terrorism, as there could not be good terrorism or bad terrorism,” he added.
