India tried to stop the proposal from being brought?
According to ‘The Hindu’, India’s Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra told reporters in New Delhi that India had tried to prevent MPs from the European Parliament from raising the issue. India had put its point of view on this issue in front of him, yet he is raising this issue.
In response to a question from ‘The Hindu’, Kwatra said, “This is completely an internal matter of India. We know what is going on in the European Parliament. We have talked to him about this. But let us also tell that this is completely an internal matter of India.However, he flatly refused to tell the newspaper about the news published in a Manipuri newspaper that the Government of India has hired a company ‘Alber & Jigar’ in Brussels for lobbying on this issue.
The service of this company was taken to contact European MPs. It is being said that a letter was sent to him on behalf of the Government of India.The newspaper has written that the Bharatiya Janata Party has been accused of promoting hate speech on the proposals presented in the European Parliament. It says that the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government is implementing divisive caste policies. Some parties have alleged misuse of AFSPA, UPPA and FCRA rules.
