Watch: India abstains from vote on Sri Lanka at UNHRC over civil war crimes

India abstained from vote on Sri Lanka at UN Human Rights Council.

Delhi asked Colombo to continue reconciliation process with Tamils.

UNHRC adopted resolution to collect proof of crimes in Sri Lanka's civil war.

The Lankan civil war ended in 2009 after defeat of Tamil tiger rebels.

The resolution sponsored by countries which included UK, Germany, Canada.

11 nations including Bangladesh, Pakistan and China voted against the resolution.

“India's approach to the question of human rights in Sri Lanka is guided by the two fundamental considerations of support to the Tamils of Sri Lanka for equality, justice, dignity and peace, and ensuring the unity, stability and territorial integrity of Sri Lanka,” said first secretary Pawan Badhe.

Breaking: China Sending 40 J-35 War Jets To Pakistan| BIG Trouble for India? Details

Pakistan is planning to acquire 40 advanced Chinese J-35 stealth fighter jets, marking China's first export of fifth-generation aircraft. The deal aims to replace Pakistan's aging fleet of F-16s and Mirage fighters, enhancing its air defense capabilities. This acquisition, expected to be delivered within two years, could significantly alter regional dynamics, particularly with India. Despite economic challenges, Pakistan moves forward with this high-tech upgrade, which could escalate tensions in the region. #Pakistan #China #J35Jets #StealthFighters #AirForce #F16 #Mirage #IndiaPakistanTensions #MilitaryUpgrade #DefenseDeal #Oneindia #OneindiaNews Also Read Senate Approves Defence Bill Raising Troop Pay and Enhancing Military Spending to Counter China's Influence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/senate-passes-defence-bill-increase-troop-pay-counter-china-011-4019961.html?ref=DMDesc Ajit Doval And Wang Yi Strengthen Peace Efforts At LAC To Boost India-China Relations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ajit-doval-wang-yi-strengthen-peace-efforts-lac-boost-india-china-relations-4019879.html?ref=DMDesc China Constructs World's Largest Artificial Island Airport In Dalian :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/china-constructs-worlds-largest-artificial-island-airport-in-dalian-011-4018775.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.362~ED.103~HT.318~
