"The issues related to children's rights cut across considerations of political systems and geography. The entire world is grief stricken over the recent horrific incident at a Peshawar school," said the chief minister.
"The people of India are strongly behind the bereaved souls in Pakistan," Patnaik said at a sensitisation programme for lawmakers on child rights here.
He said: "Children belong to none, but humanity. We have to take issues related to children's welfare most zealously, ignoring our political differences and other partisan considerations."
Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan militants Tuesday attacked an army-run school in Peshawar, killing 148 people, including 132 children.
