New Delhi: India's Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Syed Akbaruddin said justice will be done in the case of Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed.

Speaking on the sidelines of a conference on soft power, he said, "Justice will be done in the case of Hafiz Saaed and the country will not forget or forgive what he did."

Addressing the conference, he said, "India's major needs as a developing country will always be internal. Given that we are a country of a billion plus, every aspect of our public diplomacy would be towards improving our internal conditions," he said.

"The big challenges facing India are climate (change) and sanitation and there is no shame in acknowledging that we need to improve.

I have not seen any diplomat before 2014 stood up to acknowledge our shortcomings," he said.

But today efforts are being put in to "improve ourselves that is the face of changing Indian diplomacy".

Noting that everyone uses soft power, Akbaruddin listed out India's efforts in using soft diplomacy as a tool.
