Prime Minister Narendra Modi today credited the efforts of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Ministry of External Affairs officials for the re-election of Dalveer Bhandari to the International Court of Justice.
He also expressed gratitude to members of the United Nations General Assembly and the United Nations Security Council for “their support and trust in India.”
Congratulations to EAM @SushmaSwaraj and her entire team at MEA & diplomatic missions for their untiring efforts that have led to India's re-election to ICJ. Our deep gratitude to all the members of UNGA as well as UNSC for their support and trust in India.
November 21, 2017“Our deep gratitude to all the members of UNGA as well as UNSC for their support and trust in India,” the PM tweeted.
He also congratulated Justice Bhandari on his re- election to the International Court of Justice.
“His re-election is a proud moment for us,” Modi said.
I congratulate Justice Dalveer Bhandari on being re-elected to the International Court of Justice. His re-election is a proud moment for us.
November 21, 2017Earlier today, Bhandari was re-elected to the ICJ as the General Assembly overwhelmingly threw its weight behind him, forcing Britain to withdraw its candidate from a hard-fought race to the World Court.
Bhandari and UK's Christopher Greenwood were locked in a neck-and-neck fight for re-election as the UN could not decide between them after electing four out of five judges to the ICJ.
Bhandari, 70, received 183-193 votes in the General Assembly and secured all 15 votes in the Security Council to fill the final vacancy on the ICJ after separate but simultaneous elections were held at the U.N. headquarters in New York.
