The Indian envoy was summoned by the government in Qatar today amid growing anger at home and abroad over the comments on Prophet Muhammad by several BJP leaders.

Earlier today, Ambassador Deepak Mittal had a meeting in the Foreign Office in which Qatar raised concern over the remarks of Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar Jindal.
