In acts of terror, the victims are the biggest sufferers, but debates on human rights only highlight the rights of terrorists and the crime's perpetrators, and not those of the victims, he said while addressing the Common Wealth Law Ministers' Conference in the Bahamas.
Later, the meeting adopted in its outcome that "terrorism could have no justification and that acts of terror were the most egregious violation of human rights of victims".
A release issued today by the law ministry said that this was for the first time that the meet adopted an outcome on terrorism.
He also underlined the need for working together to address the concerns on cyber security and data privacy.
The minister also informed delegates of the Commonwealth nations that India is not only working towards ensuring a robust data protection regime, but is also committed to create a safe and secure cyber space.
He emphasised the need for using data analytics and cyber forensics for better investigation of terror attacks.
