India votes in support of UNHRC resolution on Gaza

[doublemaster]

India along with BRICS countries on Wednesday voted in support of a UN Human Rights Council resolution to launch a probe into Israel's offensive on Gaza.

India joined Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa to vote for a Palestinian-drafted resolution on "Ensuring Respect for international law in The Occupied Palestinian Territories, including East Jersusalem".

In the 47-member council, 29 countries voted in support of the resolution while 17 nations abstained. The US was the only nation to vote against the resolution. European countries abstained.

The voting came as bloodbath in the Gaza Strip continued unabated on Wednesday with Israel and Hamas refusing to back down in the 16-day conflict that has killed over 680 Palestinians and 31 Israelis.

Earlier, India asked Israel and Palestine to demonstrate political will to agree to a ceasefire and return to the negotiating table. "We remain hopeful that a sustainable ceasefire will be reached between the two sides, linked to the resumption of the peace process, for a comprehensive resolution of the Palestinian issue," India's Permanent Representative to the UN Asoke Mukerji said at the UN Security Council open debate on 'The Situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian Question'.

He said India is "deeply concerned" at the steep escalation in the conflict between Israel and Palestine that has resulted in a large number of civilian casualties and heavy damage to property.

Yes we do support. we proved..Whats the use of BD and Pak if it can not help Gaza? I really dont mind if our PM modi invade Saudi Arab. I am sure that he would be more just than Sauds...

It doesn't matter which party ruling, our government always support what is right. It will be interesting to see the faces of many blind supporters of both Modi and Israel.

To be honest...Respect for India increased....

I support this decision. This is a well thought out decision.There is a definite humanitarian crisis going on in Gaza. There is nothing wrong with a UNHRC investigation. The govt was right by not passing a resolution against Israel in Indian parliament as that would have been a pointless exercise, but this is different. This however does not mean that India and other non Muslim countries who voted for it are with Hamas.

Wait a minute...today morning news came out from the Israeli ambassador that gaza wont effect ties with India.

After that, we get a news that India voted for UNHRC resoultions. Something is surely cooking behind the scenes which we dont know.

Israel knows that with 200 million muslims in India, we can not ignore the deaths of Muslim civilians in Palestine. Such resolutions have little impact in real terms though and hence have little impact on real relations.

I am pretty confident that there is definitely some backdoor diplomacy involved here. You have to consider that India's vote was immaterial as it was going to be adopted either way.
