External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Wednesday said that there is "a political effort" to depict the current government in India in a certain way. Jaishankar, who is on an official visit to the US was responding to a question on alleged "Hindutva" policies that could undermine the secular nature of Indian democracy.
Jaishankar said during the stressful time in the wake of the pandemic, the government is extending help ‘anonymously and impersonally’ without exercising any discrimination.
The EAM stressed that there a difference between the political imagery that has been "concocted" and the actual governance record in India.
