On Sunday several middle eastern nations called out and condemned the statement made by the Ruling party’s spokesperson on a live TV debate. BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma last week had made an allegedly offensive remark about Prophet Mohammed. This sparked protest and uproar in the country. However, little did the Modi govt think that the comments made by its spokesperson on Live TV will have international repercussions. Middle East’s Islamic countries Kuwait, Qatar, Iran and Even Saudi Arabia took notice of the issue and condemned it. Not only that, they also summoned Indian envoys in their country to register their protest. In the whirlwind action since Sunday, the ruling BJP suspended its spokesperson, distanced itself from the statement made. In this episode of the Editorial, our Managing Editor Mr Sujit Nair shares his take on the matter
