"Religious freedom is a fundamental human right, and when any country infringes on it, the United States must stand up and speak out," Senator Tammy Baldwin said in a statement after introducing the resolution this week.
A US Senator has introduced a resolution in the Senate, urging the Biden administration to engage with India to "reverse" its policies that allegedly discriminate on the basis of religion and push for an end to violence against peaceful protesters in the country.
“Religious freedom is a fundamental human right, and when any country infringes on it, the United States must stand up and speak out," Senator Tammy Baldwin said in a statement after introducing the resolution this week.
"I am calling on the United States to continue pushing the government of India to reverse course on the systematic religious and political persecution that is endangering and disenfranchising innocent civilians,” he said.
