1. The Maldives Foreign Ministry has condemned Nupur Sharma’s statement and welcomed the BJP’s suspension of Sharma. Opposition in the Maldives had earlier moved a motion in this regard however, it was not approved. Maldives opposition leader Adam Sharif Umar said it was surprising that the ruling party had not commented on it.

2. The Sheikh Hasina Government in Bangladesh has not commented on the matter. Sheikh Hasina protested when Durga Puja pandals were vandalised in Bangladesh last year. There should be no such activities in India, which will affect the Hindus in Bangladesh, she said.

Editorial Viewpoints

• After anti-Hindu painter MF Hussein insulted Hindu Deities, Qatar granted him refuge. How did Qatar allow this, India should question Qatar about it.
• Dr Zakir Naik, the role model of jihadi terrorists in India, is hiding in Malaysia. How does Malaysia allow it ? India should also ask about it.
•  Genocide of Hindus is taking place in Pakistan and Afghanistan. When will India question them ?
• In the Gulf countries, Hindus are banned from performing their religious activities, when will India ask these countries why so ?
