MEA rejects US report on religious freedom as 'deeply biased, motivated by votebank considerations'

MEA Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal addressed the media, stating, "We have noted the release of the US State Department’s report on international religious freedom for 2023. As in the past, the report is deeply biased, lacks an understanding of India's social fabric, and is visibly driven by vote bank considerations and a prescriptive outlook. We, therefore, reject it."
