External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will be addressing the United Nations General Assembly a short while from now.

She is expected to raise issues like the global fight against terrorism, climate change and the Security Council's reform in her address.

When Swaraj, 65, takes the podium she would be addressing the UN General Assembly for the second consecutive time.

She is expected to deliver her speech in Hindi like the last year.

Swaraj, who arrived New York last Sunday, spent a major part of her day on Friday giving final touches to her speech, in which if there is any indication, based on her remarks at other multilateral forums and bilateral meetings, among other things is expected to include fight against terrorism, reform of the UNSC, climate change and an emerging India's role and responsibilities in the 21st century.  -- PTI
