> I mean this is utterly condescending and racist.
There is nothing racist about the international community raising concerns about violations of basic democratic rights such as free speech and right of assembly.
> I think anytime anything happens to some minority in the the Great USA, us Indians also need to call our MP and ask them to create noise.
I would support Indians doing this. Please raise concerns with your representatives when you see human rights violations in any part of the world and ask them to speak about it in international forums.
In the past, India has done a commendable job in helping minorities persecuted by the CCP. Many Tibetian Buddhists were given refuge in India, including Dalai Lama, who fled Tibet in 1959. Contrary to it's history, India is staying mum on contemporary persecution of religious minorities in neighboring countries such as Rohingyas in Myanmar and Uyghurs in China.
> Basic democratic rights were not hampered, also right of assembly.
False. The government has repeatedly used Section 144 to deny the right to assemble and protest. During Hathras gangrape, not only did the government deny such rights to those who wanted to express solidarity with the victim and victims family by using Section 144. It turned a blind eye when the perpetrators milleu openly violated the section to assemble to show support on behalf of the accused. Why, because those are BJP's (the ruling party's) vote base.
The party IT cell head (Malviya) divulged the identity of the victim of rape although this is against the law. No charges have brought against Malviya or those who assembled in support of the gangrape accused in violation of Section 144.
> India has taken in Rohingya refugees just like Tibetan …
Since we are talking about this government could you point me to stats on Rohingya's given asylum in India. How many has been given asylum ? I presume you were speaking from a position of knowledge. On lack of a response I will update my assumptions about your good faith.
