India at UN says priority is to ensure elections in LibyaInternationaloi-Vicky NanjappaUnited Nations, Jun 28: India has said it is regrettable that there is still no agreement on the Constitutional basis for holding elections in Libya, saying that the priority right now is to ensure that elections are held at the earliest in a free, fair, inclusive, and credible manner, news agency PTI reported. "We noted with a high degree of concern the reports of armed clashes and mobilisations of armed groups in and around Tripoli," Mr Madhu Sudan said. It has been about half a year since the missed milestone for holding elections as decided by Libyans themselves. India underlined that the priority right now is to ensure that elections are held at the earliest in a free, fair, inclusive, and credible manner. Mr Madhu Sudan further stressed the importance of planning for the disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration of armed groups and non-state armed actors.
