Trump shares right-wing anchor’s rant against Indians, MEA terms it ‘inappropriate’

The Centre responded to derogatory remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump about India and Indian immigrants, calling them "uninformed, inappropriate, and in poor taste." The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson stated that the comments do not reflect the reality of the India-U.S. relationship and expressed concern over the amplified views shared by Mr. Trump. The U.S. Embassy did not clarify or backpedal on Mr. Trump's statements, further fueling criticism from Indian politicians and experts who called for a stronger response from the government.
