Sambhali Trust urges global solidarity against terrorism at UNHRC

Sambhali Trust representative Hansraj Singh urges global solidarity against terrorism at UNHRC, highlighting India’s peacekeeping efforts.

"The Pahalgam attack is a grave violation of international humanitarian law and UN anti-terrorism frameworks. – Hansraj Singh, Sambhali Trust"

Geneva, June 24

The recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which targeted innocent civilians, was strongly condemned during the 59th Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) held in Geneva. Addressing the session, Hansraj Singh, a representative from Sambhali Trust, called the attack a grave violation of international humanitarian law, UN anti-terrorism frameworks, and global norms against state-sponsored violence.

According to the press release by the Sambhali Trust, Singh used the platform to emphasise the urgent need for global solidarity in a world increasingly fractured by conflict, discrimination, and inequality. He highlighted the importance of unified international efforts to combat terrorism and uphold human rights universally.

Drawing attention to India's role, Singh underscored the country's unwavering commitment to peace, tolerance, and universal brotherhood. He detailed India's active participation in global peacekeeping missions, humanitarian aid, and regional partnerships aimed at promoting stability. He reiterated that India's constitutional values and national policies continue to uphold principles of non-violence and solidarity, transcending divisions of nationality and identity.

Speaking on behalf of Sambhali Trust, Hansraj Singh urged the United Nations and international bodies to strengthen mechanisms for international cooperation and support local peace building initiatives, ensuring that grassroots voices are represented in global dialogues on solidarity and human rights.

Sambhali Trust is an Indian nonprofit organisation dedicated to empowering marginalized women and girls, primarily from the desert region of Rajasthan. Founded in 2007, it provides education, vocational training, and skill development to help women gain financial independence and improve their social status. The Trust runs schools, training centers, and community programs focusing on literacy, tailoring, computer skills, and healthcare awareness.

The 59th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC59) is currently underway in Geneva, Switzerland, from June 16 to July 9, 2025. This session serves as a pivotal platform for addressing global human rights challenges and advancing the international human rights agenda.

Proud of Sambhali Trust for representing India's voice at UNHRC! 🇮🇳 Terrorism has no place in civilized society. We need more such organizations to highlight how India is working for peace while facing cross-border terrorism. Hope the world takes note!

While I appreciate the sentiment, I wonder if such speeches actually lead to action. Pakistan-based terror groups continue attacks in J&K. The UN needs to move beyond statements and impose real consequences on states sponsoring terrorism.

So inspiring to see an organization working for women's empowerment also speaking on global platforms! Sambhali Trust is doing phenomenal work in Rajasthan. Their holistic approach - from education to anti-terror advocacy - shows how local NGOs can have global impact ✨

India has always been a victim of terrorism from across the border. Glad someone is finally calling out state-sponsored violence at international forums. But will China and Pakistan be held accountable? That's the real question.

The Pahalgam attack was heartbreaking 💔 We common people suffer the most. While speeches at UN are important, our government must also strengthen security in vulnerable areas. More CCTV, better intelligence sharing between states.

Respectfully disagree with some points - India's foreign policy needs to be more assertive. Our neighbors take our tolerance as weakness. Sometimes I feel we're too focused on being the 'good guys' while others play dirty. Need to match actions with strong words.
