UNSC's counter-terrorism efforts need urgent reforms: Munir

Speaking at UN Security Council, Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Munir Akram said

Council should set up a body to monitor and facilitate the implementation of its resolutions, including those in abeyance for considerable time, such as those on Palestine and Kashmir.

Pakistan's Envoy said expanding number of non-permanent members is vital to enhancing its representativeness and reducing dominance of its permanent members.

Ambassador Munir Akram called on UN Security Council to shift some of its focus on combating Al-Qaeda and ISIS/Daesh to Hindutva groups in India terrorizing Muslims.
