New Delhi /
India Friday dismissed as ‘’subjective’’ the New York Times editorial questioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party BJP over the installation of fire brand Hindu cleric Yogi Adityanath as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister.
It said the choice of Mr Adityanath was a democratic act which should not be questioned.
‘’All editorials or opinions are subjective. This case is particularly so. The wisdom in doubting the verdicts of genuine democratic exercises (at home or abroad) is questionable,’’ External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Gopal Baglay said here while replying to a question at the weekly media briefing.
The editorial titled ‘Mr Modi’s Perilous Embrace of Hindu Extremists’ was published yesterday.
