 ~Preet Chinese President Xi Jinping recently proposed a new Global Security Initiative (GSI). The GSI seeks to oppose the United States' Indo-Pacific strategy and the Quad (India, US, Australia, Japan grouping). China, on the other hand, did not give much clarity or explanation regarding the planned global security programme. With escalating challenges from unilateralism, hegemony, and power politics, as well as growing deficiencies in peace, security, trust, and governance, humanity is confronted with more intractable issues and security concerns.  As a result, China maintained that the Global Security Initiative is intended to safeguard the notion of "indivisible security." According to the notion of "indivisible security," no country may increase its own security at the expense of others. GSI advocates for "shared, comprehensive, cooperative, and sustainable" security, as well as the development of an Asian security paradigm based on mutual respect

UNGA asked Russia to withdraw troops from Ukraine. ~Preet India has refrained from voting at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The resolution demanded that Russia remove its soldiers unconditionally. The General Assembly meeting was called after a similar resolution failed to pass the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) due to Russia's veto. The resolution, which was co-sponsored by 96 nations, required to be supported by two-thirds of those present and voting in order to pass. It opposes Russia's'special military operation' over Ukraine on February 24, 2022. It declares that no lands gained by force will be recognised and demands that Russia withdraw from Ukraine "now, entirely, and unconditionally." T. S. Tirumurti, India's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, stated that the "safe and uninterrupted transit" of Indian people, particularly students, was India's "top con

 UNSC condemns Russia's aggression. ~Preet The United Nations Security Council recently agreed on a draught resolution proposed by the United States and Albania to condemn Russian aggression and demand for an immediate cease of hostilities and removal of Russian armed forces from Ukraine.  The resolution reiterated the Council's commitment to Ukraine's sovereignty, independence, unity, and territorial integrity within internationally recognised boundaries. The resolution "strongly condemns Russia's aggression against Ukraine" and orders Russia to "immediately halt use of force against Ukraine and desist from any subsequent illegal threat or use of force against any UN member state." The previous version was overly aggressive, invoking UN Chapter VII, which allows for the use of force against Russian soldiers in Ukraine. It further demanded that Russia "immediately and unconditionally revoke the decision pertaining to the status of some territori

     Lack in the supplies for police, says the Parliamentary Report.  ~Preet A report on police training, modernization, and reforms was recently submitted by the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Affairs. The study emphasises the amount of improvements that are necessary as well as the obstacles that police forces confront. The study requested that the Centre assist states and union territories on how to build a road map to ensure that women are represented in the police force at a rate of 33 percent, while also expressing concern over their underrepresentation.  Rather of converting vacant men's roles, more postings might be created to accommodate women in the police force. Increasing the proportion of women in the police force will also assist to improve the police-to-population ratio. States and union territories should allocate major, difficult tasks to women rather than minor ones. Each district should have at least one all-female police station, according to the repor
