India has voiced concern over the insufficient political commitment by nations for substantive support to UN peace building efforts. India's Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Tanmaya Lal said marginal funding severely limits the ability of the world body's intergovernmental agency focussed on peace efforts in conflict affected countries. <br/><br/>Participating in a General Assembly debate on the Peace building Commission and Peace building fund yesterday, Lal said there is no agreement on increasing funding for the Commission to even a one per cent level of that for peacekeeping operations annually. He said, the total amount of USD 71 million allocated during 2016 for 17 countries, including the six countries where the<br/><br/>Peace building Commission is active, is grossly inadequate for the scale of the tasks at hand. Stressing on the changing nature of conflict, Lal said conflicts are increasingly intra-state and also involve non- state actors including international terror networks.
