Minority remark: ‘Look at own record,’ MEA tells Iran’s supreme leader

The Indian Ministry of External Affairs responded to remarks made by Iran’s Supreme Leader about the suffering of the Muslim community in India, Gaza, and Myanmar. The MEA strongly deplored the comments, calling them misinformed and unacceptable. The Supreme Leader had urged unity among Muslims and highlighted the suffering of Muslims in various countries. While Iranian media did not mention India in reports about his comments, this is not the first time he has spoken about Indian Muslims. The MEA advised countries to look at their own record before making observations about others.
