Modi said- United Nations is facing a crisis of trust, cannot face the current challenges without major reforms

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that the United Nations (UN) is facing a crisis of trust and this should be noted. The Prime Minister said this in a four-minute video message. The message was telecast live from the UN Headoffice at three in the morning on Tuesday, at the 75th anniversary of the UN General Assembly.

This message of Modi was already recorded. He said, "We cannot meet today's challenges with the old system. If major reforms do not take place, trust in the UN is in danger of being eroded. He said that today's world is interlinked, so we need a multilateral system in which the reality of today is seen, the voice of all is heard, which deals with the current challenges and focuses on human welfare. "Prime Minister Said that India is ready to work together with all countries in this direction.

Also praised the U.N.

Modi showed the mirror to the UN and praised it. He said that the UN has reflected the thinking of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam of India. This thinking is about seeing the world as a family. Today the world is a better place because of the UN. We pay tribute to all those who worked for peace and development. India contributed further to this.

Modi said, "The work we are doing today is being accepted, but more work needs to be done on issues like preventing conflict, determining development, climate change, reducing inequality, and taking advantage of digital technology."
