Qatar summons Indian envoy over BJP leaders’ remarks on Prophet Muhammad

Qatar summons the Indian envoy over the remarks made against Prophet Muhammad by Bharatiya Janata Party leaders. In response, Indian envoy to Qatar Deepak Mittal said the tweets are “views of elephants”.

Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the Indian ambassador and handed him an official note which said that Qatar “strongly disapproves and condemns” the remarks made by an official of the ruling party in India against Prophet Muhammad.

The note indicated that more than two billion Muslims worldwide follow the prophet Muhammad’s guidance, adding that these derogatory remarks would fuel religious hatred.
