BJP Reacts Strongly to Mayor’s Remarks
Addressing a press conference, BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said the party viewed the mayor’s action as an unwarranted intervention in India’s domestic matters. He asserted that comments from foreign political figures on India’s legal processes were unacceptable.
Questions Raised Over Authority
Mr. Bhatia questioned the authority and relevance of a foreign mayor commenting on issues related to India’s internal security and judicial system. He stated that India is a sovereign nation governed by its Constitution and laws, and such matters are handled exclusively by its institutions.
Government’s Stand on Domestic Matters
No Tolerance for External Interference
The BJP spokesperson emphasised that India would not tolerate interference from external entities, especially on sensitive legal cases. He added that any individual facing trial in India is subject to due process, and opinions from abroad do not influence the country’s judicial framework.
The remarks have added to ongoing political debate surrounding international commentary on India’s internal affairs, with the BJP reiterating its stance on national sovereignty.
