@okman9684 that's the wrong kind of logic. Nupur could have put in better words. She put national interests at stake. Without nation there's no Lord Shiva or Gyanvapi. We just became a bunch of bickering tribes without a nation.

So basically, we are reacting to Arab nations condemnation because we violated the tenants of Riyadh agreement. For folks who aren't aware Riyadh agreement, is a social contract between GCC leaders where they wouldn't do anything to embarrass or put each other's Royal Families under political pressure. Sauds and Emiratis blockaded Qatar because Qataris violated that agreement through Al Jazeera. That agreement is also why they really react to India's politics. Ya, Nupur crossed the line for any party. Her statement impacted our National interest and she was booted out. At least in some sense, it's reassuring that BJP does not compromise on National interests.

@shauryaparihar8364 suuuuuurrrreeee ? Please point me to data and statistics. This issue, did not even make it Al Jazeera's front page (I'm not even making that up - and I was quite surprised). I'm still waiting and self likes are not likes.
