In India, top Muslim bodies have slammed Modi-led BJP government and its ideological mentor, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh for destroying freedom and pluralism across the country.
Speaking at a two-day conference titled "Current Situation of the Country and Our Response", speakers expressed dismay over a vast section of news media for acting like a wing of extremist Hindu organizations.
The conference is aimed to protect pluralism and safeguard eroding values of democratic institutions in India.
