Govt slams European Parl for interference in internal affairs

With the European Parliament adopting a resolution on Manipur that called upon the Indian government to take all necessary measures to stop the violence there, the government Thursday slammed the interference in Indias internal affairs calling it unacceptable and reflecting a colonial mindset.

The European Parliament would be well advised to utilise its time more productively on its internal issues, said the government. India had earlier reached out to the EU lawmakers explaining to them this was an internal matter of India.
