In a UN statement, the Indian Ambassador to the UN informed that issues between two countries should be resolved in an atmosphere free from terror, hostility and violence and the onus is on Pakistan to create such an environment.
"Pakistan should take credible and verifiable action not to allow any territory under their control to be used for cross border terrorism against India," he said.
Tirumurti also informed that India wants to keep a spotlight on counter-terrorism.
Meanwhile, India on Sunday assumed the rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and will be hosting signature events related to maritime security, peacekeeping, and counterterrorism during the month.
