Giving information about this, spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs Arindam Bagchi said, ‘During the meeting between the Foreign Minister of Iran and the National Security Adviser of India, no statement was made with reference to the Prophet Mohammad. We have already made it clear that this is not the opinion of the Government of India. Action has been taken against those who made remarks and tweeted about the Prophet. We have nothing more to say on this topic. I am aware that the part of what is currently being talked about has been removed from the statement by the Iranian Foreign Ministry’.
