New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said the fight against terrorism and radicalisation was not against any religion, but against a mindset that misguides the young.

Every religion promotes human values, the prime minister said in his address at a conference on 'Islamic Heritage: Promoting Understanding & Moderation', where Jordan's King Abdullah II was also present.

India, the prime minister added, had been a "cradle of all major religions in the world"

Sharing his views on religion, Abdullah II said faith should hold humanity together.

"Faith allows us to prosper and thrive, he said while emphasising that people should reject voices which spread hatred. Our strongest defence against turmoil is inclusion," he said.
