The Ministry’s statement came a day after the U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for IRF had said that Karnataka should not determine permissibility of religious clothing.
Following the U.S. Office of International Religious Freedom’s on the Karnataka hijab row, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on February 12 said, that motivated comments on India’s internal issues are not welcome.
In a statement on Twitter, MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said, "Our constitutional framework and mechanisms, as well as our democratic ethos and polity, are the context in which issues are considered and resolved,” referring to the ongoing case in Karnataka High Court.
“Those who know India well would have a proper appreciation of these realities,” he added.
