Indian Diplomat’s Strong Rebuttal to Switzerland at UN Over Minority Remarks

India hit back strongly at Switzerland in the UN after it raised concerns over minorities. Indian diplomat Kshitij Tyagi dismissed the Swiss statement as “shallow and ill-informed,” urging Switzerland, which currently presides over the UNHRC, to focus instead on its own issues of racism, discrimination, and xenophobia. He reaffirmed India’s pluralistic and democratic values, calling the country the world’s largest and most vibrant democracy.
