Quran burning in Sweden: India votes in favour of  UNHRC resolution brought by Pakistan 

The draft resolution brought by Pakistan got support from 28 members including India.&nbsp;

India on Wednesday voted in favour of a draft resolution tabled in the UN Human Rights Council that condemns and strongly rejects recent &ldquo;public and premeditated&rdquo; acts of desecration of the Holy Quran.
The Geneva-based 47-member UN Human Rights Council adopted the draft resolution &lsquo;Countering religious hatred constituting incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence&rsquo;, with 28 members voting in favour, seven abstentions and 12 nations voting against.
Those voting in favour of the resolution included Bangladesh, China, Cuba, Malaysia, Maldives, Pakistan, Qatar, Ukraine and UAE. Nations voting against the resolution included Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, the UK and the US.
The draft resolution was brought by Pakistan on &ldquo;behalf of the States Members of the United Nations that are members of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation&rdquo; as well as by the State of Palestine.

Sweden’s government suspects that actors from abroad incited violent riots in several Swedish cities last week, according to the country's justice minister.
Crowds threw rocks and burned cars and trash cans after a Danish far-right provocateur announced plans to hold meetings in Sweden. Rasmus Paludan has burned copies of the Quran at events in Denmark where he also bashes Islam, and the news he wanted to do the same in Sweden sparked anger.
Paludan, who holds dual Danish-Swedish citizenship, “seems for some reason to hate Sweden and try to harm Sweden. I do not understand why” Justice Minister Morgan Johansson said.
In an interview with Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet published Wednesday, Johansson referred to online claims that surfaced earlier this year about Swedish social service agencies allegedly kidnapping Muslim children.
“There are many signs that they have been running here as well, campaigning and supporting this in various ways," the minister said.
The Foreign Ministry in Stockholm posted a Twitter thread in February devoted to what it termed “a disinformation campaign.” A Swedish agency established to counter misinformation said the kidnapping allegations could be traced to an Arabic-language site whose creator expressed support for the Islamic State group.
“We see how the image of Sweden is set by some of these actors in the Middle East," Aftonbladet quoted Johansson as saying. "It is also addressed by a couple of governments, in Iraq and in Iran.”
After word of Paludan's planned stunt reached Iran and the United Arab Emirates, the governments in Tehran and Dubai summoned Swedish diplomats to protest.
A total of 26 police officers and 14 other individuals — protesters or other people — were injured in the riots, and 20 police vehicles destroyed or damaged, officials have said.
The latest violence broke out Sunday night in Malmo, Sweden’s third-largest city, as an angry crowd of mainly young people set fire to tires, debris and garbage cans in an neighborhood known for high crime.
Unrest and violent clashes were reported in several other Swedish cities. Three people were hurt in Norrkoping on Sunday as they were hit by ricochets when police fired warning shots.
Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson is set to visit Norrkoping and Linkoping, another city that saw rioting, on Wednesday.
National police officials said Monday that they suspected some of the rioters were linked to criminal gangs that intentionally target police.

Sweden continues to remain in news after fierce riots sparked by a political party's plan to burn the Quran. The Swedish government has condemned the violence, while claiming that the Quran burning events are freedom of speech, even if in "bad taste".
So, who is behind the provocative programmes, leading to violence by counter-protestors? The events have been planned by a Danish far-right political party called 'Stram Kurs', or Hard Line. Stram Kurs has been accused of creating divisions by following an anti-Islam, and anti-immigrant ideology.
The party is led by Rasmus Paludan, a Danish-Swedish politician and lawyer. 40-year-old Paludan has been convicted in the past for making racial insults, as per reports. In 2020, he had reportedly been arrested in France, and deported. Paludan has reportedly burned copies of the Quran in the past too.
He is reportedly planning to contest the legislative elections in Sweden in September 2022. He is yet to secure the necessary number of signatures to confirm his candidature in the Swedish elections, according to reports.
