Sushma Swaraj: India's External Affairs Minister Addresses UN General Assembly in Speech
India’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj hit back powerfully at Pakistan saying it must “give up terror” if the two countries must “sit down and talk.”
Addressing the UN General Assembly in Hindi, Swaraj landed a solid left hook to counter Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's four-point peace initiative. “We do not need four points, we need just one - give up terrorism and let us sit down and talk.”
Prime Minister Narendra Modi showered praise on Sushma Swaraj for the bold tone, which was a foregone conclusion after Sharif’s turn at the UN barely 24 hours ago.

Isro to align with 170 government projects to benefit aam aadmi
NEW DELHI: Indian Space Research Organization (Isro), which is to receive the Gandhi Peace Prize on Wednesday for its contribution in many areas to bring about socio-economic transformation in the country, is set to act as a force-multiplier in implementing as many as 170 projects where space technology can be used for a better life.
Details of these projects were discussed during a day-long meeting where Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday noted how these efforts of the country's space agency would put India on its growth trajectory.
Recalling a question raised in certain quarters whether a poor country like India should go for costly space missions, the PM quoted father of Indian space programme, Vikram Sarabhai, who had once said the country was not pursuing its space mission out of competition but out of necessity as innovations of any kind would eventually improve the living conditions of the common man.
