He said that BJP should apologise to Indians at home for spreading hatred and propaganda. On Twitter, he slammed BJP’s propaganda. He posted a series of tweets today and questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He questioned why India as a country should apologise for the “hate speeches of BJP bigots”. He wrote on Twitter, “It is BJP that should apologise; not India as a Nation.” He also tagged PM Modi in his tweets.
Other opposition leaders also slammed BJP over this incident. Opposition leaders also said that India has not made any mistake for which it should apologise. They also blamed BJP for spreading propaganda against Muslims.
India is facing a huge backlash from the Gulf countries over the remarks by Sharma. #BoycottIndia is trending in Arab countries on Twitter. In Saudi Arabia, #ArrestNupurSharma and #Stopinsulting_ProphetMuhammad hashtags have started trending on Twitter.
On Sunday, Gulf countries slammed India. The secretary-general of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) issued a statement condemning Sharma’s remarks. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and Iran strongly condemned the remarks, describing them as “Islamophobic”.
