Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday congratulated External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj for her address at the UN General Assembly and termed it firm and effective.

"Congrats to EAM @SushmaSwaraj for a firm, effective & fine articulation of a wide range of global issues at #UNGA," tweeted Modi.

Speaking in Hindi at the United Nations General Assembly, Sushma hit hard at Pakistan, saying that there are countries that "speak the language of terror, nurture it, peddle it, and export it" and called upon the world body to unite in its fight against those who "seed" extremist ideologies.

She also urged the UN General Assembly to isolate any nation that does not join in the fight against terror and asserted that Kashmir is an integral part of India and it will always remain so.
