Pakistan Statement -- International Terrorism
PAKISTAN PERMANENT MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS 8 EAST 65th STREET - NEW YORK,NY 10065 -(212) 879-8600 Please check against delivei STATEMENT BY AMBASSADOR DR. MALEEHA LODHI PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF PAKISTAN TO THE UNITED NATIONS AT THE SIXTH COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM-109: MEASURES TO ELIMINATE INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM New York, 3'"'^ October 2017 Mr. Chairman, On behalf of the Pakistan delegation, I congratulate you and members of the Bureau on the assumption of your offices. We are confident that you and your team will ably guide the work of this Committee. We assure you of our full support. Pakistan aligns itself with the statements delivered on behalf of the Organization of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). Mr. Chairman, Terrorism has claimed innocent lives, caused widespread destruction, undermined social stability and disrupted state structures. With Daesh becoming its new and even deadlier face. terrorism and violent extremism continue to be among the most complex and imposing challenges of our time. Pakistan unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, including state terrorism. There can be no justification for the killing of innocent people anywhere, regardless of the cause or pretext. Fighting terrorism is a collective challenge and the international community must address it collaboratively. Mr. Chairman, Terrorism in Pakistan is an unfortunate by product of the political and geo-strategic developments and foreign interventions in our neighborhood over the past 40 years. We have lost over 27,000 of our citizens and law enforcement personnel to this scourge, with many more injured and maimed for life. -

Hungry Bengal: War, Famine, Riots, and the End of Empire 1939-1946
Hungry Bengal: War, Famine, Riots, and the End of Empire 1939-1946 By Janam Mukherjee A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology and History) In the University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Barbara D. Metcalf, Chair Emeritus Professor David W. Cohen Associate Professor Stuart Kirsch Associate Professor Christi Merrill 1 "Unknown to me the wounds of the famine of 1943, the barbarities of war, the horror of the communal riots of 1946 were impinging on my style and engraving themselves on it, till there came a time when whatever I did, whether it was chiseling a piece of wood, or burning metal with acid to create a gaping hole, or cutting and tearing with no premeditated design, it would throw up innumerable wounds, bodying forth a single theme - the figures of the deprived, the destitute and the abandoned converging on us from all directions. The first chalk marks of famine that had passed from the fingers to engrave themselves on the heart persist indelibly." 2 Somnath Hore 1 Somnath Hore. "The Holocaust." Sculpture.
