Such events will not be tolerated ! : President Biden

Editorial Viewpoint
The US otherwise maligns India’s image by publishing false reports claiming ‘minority community is insecure in India’ based on the so-called incidents of atrocities on minorities in India ! Now India should show a mirror to the US as well ! |
