I figure, if something important happens, someone will tell me’ and his detachment from politics Outlining India’s approach to global governance, Jaishankar introduced the country’s SHANTI vision NEW DELHI: India on Monday officially launched its campaign for election as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) for the 2028-29 term, with external affairs minister S Jaishankar highlighting the country’s peacekeeping record, development partnerships and commitment to a rules-based global order.Launching the candidature at the UN headquarters in New York, Jaishankar said India’s bid comes at a time when the world is facing rising conflicts, violence and instability, making the role of the United Nations and the Security Council more important than ever.”It’s a pleasure to join you today afternoon to launch India’s candidature to serve as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for the term 2028-29. We do so at a time when the world is facing a profound paradox,” Jaishankar said.”At the same time, we are witnessing levels of conflict, violence and instability that threaten even those who may be very far away,” he added.India presents SHANTI vision for UNSC campaignOutlining India’s approach to global governance, Jaishankar introduced the country’s SHANTI vision — Securing Holistic Advancement through Norms, Trust and Integrity — as the guiding principle for its UNSC campaign.He said global peace, progress and prosperity cannot be achieved in isolation and require respect for international norms and greater trust among nations.”Recent developments have only demonstrated that peace, progress and prosperity cannot be sustained in a fragmented manner,” Jaishankar said.”The world must therefore focus on holistic advancement… That journey can only be undertaken effectively when global order is valued and rules are respected. This puts a premium on norms, on trust and integrity. That is the approach that India offers: ‘Securing Holistic Advancement through Norms, Trust and Integrity’. That is SHANTI as an acronym,” he added.Jaishankar said India’s priorities would include building a secure and equitable world, ensuring that the voice of the Global South is heard, strengthening peacekeeping operations, promoting responsible use of technology and addressing challenges such as terrorism, climate change and maritime security.”India’s focus will be on working for a secure, peaceful, and equitable world — a world where the voice of the Global South is heard in equal measure,” Jaishankar said.India’s peacekeeping record, Global South outreachMaking a case for India’s candidature, Jaishankar pointed to the country’s long-standing contribution to UN peacekeeping missions.”Peacekeeping has been a crucial element of maintenance of international peace and security since the very inception of the United Nations. India has always been in the forefront of discharging that responsibility,” he said.India has deployed nearly 300,000 personnel across about 50 UN peacekeeping missions since the organisation’s establishment, Jaishankar said. At present, around 4,300 Indian personnel are serving across 10 of the 11 active UN peacekeeping missions.He said India would continue advocating for better-equipped, technology-driven and realistically mandated peacekeeping operations while supporting the Women, Peace and Security agenda.Beyond peacekeeping, Jaishankar highlighted India’s role as a development partner, noting that Indian-funded projects are currently being implemented in 79 countries.”In a world with too many conflicts and tensions, India has consistently espoused dialogue and diplomacy. We have sought to bridge differences and find common ground. Our focus has been on mitigating the impact of these developments for the Global South,” he said.Seeks support amid changing global landscapeIf elected, India would become one of the 10 rotating non-permanent members of the UNSC, serving alongside the five permanent members — China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States.Non-permanent members are elected by the 193-member UN General Assembly and require a two-thirds majority vote.India and Tajikistan will compete for the single Asia-Pacific Group seat in the 2028-29 term, with elections scheduled for June next year.Seeking support for its candidature, Jaishankar said India’s presence at the Security Council would help strengthen decision-making through wider consultations and greater representation.”We believe that India’s presence in the Security Council will help strengthen decision-making in this vital body. We therefore seek your support for our candidacy,” he said.India has previously served as a non-permanent member of the Security Council eight times — in 1950-51, 1967-68, 1972-73, 1977-78, 1984-85, 1991-92, 2011-12 and 2021-22.The latest campaign also comes as India continues to push for wider reforms of the UNSC, arguing that the current structure, created in 1945, does not reflect today’s geopolitical realities.New Delhi has repeatedly called for expansion of both permanent and non-permanent categories of membership and has maintained that meaningful UNSC reform cannot happen without addressing the existing imbalance in decision-making power.Get the latest India news and live updates.

It directed the tribunals to give them a fresh hearing and decide the cases.The bench said Section 9 of Foreigners Act places the burden upon the person to prove he or she is not a foreigner but observed that “the existence of a statutory burden under Section 9 cannot be read to mean a tribunal is relieved of its own obligation to conduct a lawful adjudication”.”Section 9 does not authorise a mechanical declaration,” it said, adding that it “does not exclude the principles of natural justice”.Tribunals must give chance to produce evidence: Supreme CourtThe issue is not whether a tribunal is powerless to proceed ex parte in every case. The narrower and more important question is whether an ex parte or effectively ex parte proceeding can result in a mechanical declaration of foreigner status without a tribunal satisfying itself that the minimum requirements of lawful and fair adjudication have been met, Supreme Court said.It said as per statutory scheme, the person seeking citizenship carries the burden of proving that he or she is not a foreigner and a “tribunal must ensure a fair procedure, meaningful notice, consideration of material, and a reasoned opinion. These features are not in conflict”.“The statutory burden placed upon the proceedee operates only after the proceeding is lawfully initiated and after the proceedee is placed in a position to understand the case against him or her. The burden cannot be shifted in a vacuum. A person cannot be expected to prove the negative without being told, with reasonable clarity, the material basis on which he or she is alleged to be a foreigner,” it said.“The protection of equality before law, equal protection of laws, life and personal liberty is, therefore, available to every person within the territory of India. A person proceeded against before a foreigners tribunal may ultimately fail to establish Indian citizenship, but the process by which such determination is made must still satisfy the constitutional requirements of fairness, reasonableness and non-arbitrariness,” the court said.“The person proceeded against is often required to establish facts relating to ancestry, residence, identity and family linkage through old public documents. Such a person cannot be expected to discharge the statutory burden under Section 9 unless the main grounds of the allegation are disclosed and a meaningful opportunity is afforded to file a response and produce evidence. The opportunity contemplated by Paragraph 3 of the 1964 Order must therefore be an effective opportunity, and not a merely formal one,” it said.Get the latest India news and live updates.

The central govt has already made its commitment clear regarding the restoration of statehood,” BJP general secretary and J&K in-charge Tarun Chug said.“Since the abrogation of Article 370, a new stream of democracy, development, tourism, and good governance is flowing. Those seeking to divert public attention should now accept the reality of the transformed Jammu and Kashmir,” he added.On Monday, the CM responded to a social media post falsely attributed to US President Donald Trump that praises Omar and backs his statehood demand. “Let’s bring back statehood and make J&K Great Again,” it said. Omar shared the post with the remark “If only”.On Sunday, addressing a rally in Jammu, the CM sarcastically asked whether he should approach Trump for J&K statehood, saying BJP politicians in J&K maintain that statehood cannot be secured by raising the issue in the J&K Assembly, in Jammu and Kashmir, or even in the national capital, New Delhi.“Now these BJP people should tell me, do I have to go to Donald Trump at the White House in America to get the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir’s statehood? If I cannot get restoration of statehood in the capital of my own country, then tell us. We will book our tickets, go to America, protest outside Mr Trump’s house and demand statehood from there. If our voice is heard from there, let us know, as we never thought of going anywhere else,” Omar had said.However, he said his party would continue its campaign in “our own country”.Get the latest India news and live updates.

PDP president Mehbooba Mufti also paid tributes at her party office.Police sealed the area around the Martyrs’ Graveyard Sunday, deploying heavy security. Education minister Sakina Itoo said she tried to visit the graveyard at 4:30am Monday but was prevented from entering.Last year, Omar had broken through police barricades and climbed a wall to reach the graveyard.“It is a matter of great regret that today we are not being allowed to pay homage to those who sacrificed their lives on July 13 in the struggle against British paramountcy and autocratic rule,” he said on MondayPDP’s Iltija Mufti said, “I haven’t seen such a paranoid administration in J&K before.”“You can’t decide who Kashmiris idolise. For us the 22 martyrs who laid down their lives in 1931 to sow the seeds of political consciousness and dignity are our heroes,” Iltija wrote on X.In Jan 2020, nearly six months after the abrogation of Article 370, the Jammu and Kashmir administration removed July 13 and Dec 5 from the list of public holidays.Dec 5 was observed as the birth anniversary of NC founder Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah while July 13 was observed as Martyrs’ Day, in remembrance of the 22 Kashmiris killed outside Srinagar Central Jail during a protest against the Dogra ruler in 1931.Get the latest India news and live updates.
