"Today is September 11th i.e. 9/11! A date in the history of the world that is known to have struck humanity," he said.

Today the world is realizing that tragedies like 9/11 will have a permanent solution, only through these values of humanity."
Total 2,977 people lost their lives on this day, 20 years ago in a fateful terror attack. On September 11, 2001, the United States faced the deadliest terrorist attack in its history. More than 3,000 people were killed in the terror attacks.
