" Takeaways from Imran Khan's speech at UN General Assembly "

UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday has described the scourge of radicalism in every society.

During his speech at the 74th session of the UNGA, the Pakistani premier said: "We all know that marginalization leads to radicalization. We must address this issue...Western leaders equated terrorism with Islam."

"In all human communities, there are radicals, there are liberals, and there are moderates. All human communities ... no religion preaches radicalism. The basis of all religions is compassion and justice, which differentiate us from the animal kingdom," Khan said.

We all know, we've seen films about Japanese 'Kamikaze' pilots at the end of the Second World War doing suicide attacks. No one blames their religion. But here we were, trying to prove we were moderates and not explaining it to the West.

 Indian Cricketers reacted on Imran Khans speech.

Virender Sehwag shared a video of Imran Khan on an American news show but inaccurately quoted the anchor, who had referred to the Pakistan Prime Minister as a "voter from the Bronx" and not "a welder" -- something that Sehwag mistakenly wrote in his tweet.
Imran Khan had mocked the infrastructure in the United States, saying "You have to go to China and see the way their infrastructure is. In New York, I am watching the car bumping around here."
The anchor responded to Imran Khan by saying "You don't sound like the Prime Minister of Pakistan, you sound like a voter from the Bronx".
