10:03 am
that of you deli, out there as poverty metal. is there these comments of obviously, and good many people how wide spread is anti muslims sentiment that in india you know, so right now the v g p and the end in gov learned a trying to do damage control the trying to put out statements and reaffirm their belief that you know, all religions are equal, that they respect all religions and they've called these opinions, opinions off french fringe elements. but our critics in india are point out that the actions are too little too late. foster for the 2 leaders in question that the government has now suspended, but suspended one and expel the other held very important rules within the party. one was a national spokeswoman, the other was
10:04 am
a top leader in the media division for the party in the national capital over here . and so critics point out that i'll get these, these things opinions, that the parties gaming have actually become mainstream in india. and that goes back to a history of its top leaders making inflammatory comments. angie's nomic comments and d. r minor. 1 to comments openly and getting away with it up pretty easily. in fact . 5 a few months ago, there were leaders that called for genocide and violence against muslims in public meetings and rights group that have pointed this out in report have been met with a lot of resistance. in fact, they've seen their offices either shutter or are there are foreign funding frozen in india. so now there are opposition parties that are asking the government to apologize and take responsibility for creating an environment in which comments
10:05 am
like these have pretty much become common. all right, so these comments, of course, a problem for india internationally. what about internally, politically, how much of a problem is this likely to be for prime minister modi and the b j p? so these comments have put india and then very embarrassing position that has put out, you know, it's trained diplomatic ties and also, you know, sort of threatening economic ties because they're growing calls for boy card for indian made products. now, just so you know, these are countries, particularly in the gulf region that india has spent a lot of time and effort. building close ties with trade is worth of billions of dollars over here domestically. there has been violence on friday after friday. prayers protesting the b j p. and these commons violence broke out in the northern city of con board,
10:06 am
dozens of people have been injured. cases have been filed against hundreds of people. security was also beefed up over the weekend. apart from that, there is growing criticism about the environment that the b j. b has created that the mainstreaming of our community discourse in india, and that is what opposition parties are now pointing out. they're also attributing these actions to the international backlash and not necessarily a sort of soul searching and an ideological commitment to religious equality and freedom in india, as he was probably natal reporting live from the deli poverty many bit. thanks. indeed, let's speak to former indian diplomat vivek culture for george star live from google graham in india. good to have you with us. so what do you make of this, this route? how does india get out of this mess? can it get out of this mess? when i distinguish when religion and politic,
10:07 am
i think. ready there's no binding belief in den, just who could not constitute enough tradition or religion must be respected and that they should be no blasphemous bombing about any visit. and certainly i for one shot the ball men's under holy profit because that's not in keeping with so what i'd grown up with and what all ended up with, believe that no, no, no faith should be the numbers. so that is one aspect and i do think it has the connection by explaining why the person on the members will be at this moment. and by suspending national spokesperson, the other political contestation that is under wayne india. barclay,
10:08 am
ideological part of. so i, for one would ro distinction when the and i can appreciate that there has been an outrage in some sections of just been on the road. that's all section that's getting these for me and up. but i also feel that it has been the victim of the action that will be speaking and more importantly, in the tradition of religious threats that india has to be all through the dickens office in. okay. all right, and i do see that that window. all right, but nonetheless this, this does threaten to damage india's reputation among its gulf allies. in particular, you could argue that, that the both countries need each other economically. however,
10:09 am
it does threaten to, to damage india's reputation and the money that it, that it gets from trade with, with gulf states. what does it need to do now to restore its reputation? cut off, for instance, is asking for a public apology from the government. will it get it? well, i think there is a mutual ality of interest in a while ago, even army with security of between the boundary and it shows in growing in the growing relationship between india and the gulf states. i don't see that that is going to go away because of this incident. also, i think that both, both the in the united states need could be a is one of the comments made by
10:10 am
the parties. are the i in one case with another member of the ruling party, is the connection. the indian embassy, who were the marsh, have also issue statement. and this teacher, i haven't seen any statement from the government. and perhaps in the new living situation that some state or some guy and all but by law may take place in the government and the countries. and bob, what i would like to under under line is the mutual, if you will, between the india and the lee and the goth beat. but to talk to so many thanks, dave for being with us. the vic capture the in good and investigators in bangladesh, trying to establish the cause of a major fire at

10:13 am
well spark of fire. that could be one of the reason. and then the container exploded, but that's not totally yet. determined they're still investigating a 3 member, a separate 3 prob comedy has been found to find out exactly what's going on. and we spoke to the smart group, the company that owns dar. i depot here, the general manager was visiting here. we oxen, was there any preparation for this depot, whether the chemicals were isolated, separate, clearly couldn't answer. but he said there have fire fighting, acute men's and people. what he is here for is to pay compensation for the victims . and he want to know how many workers were there and to pay them damage and take care of them in the hospitals. so right now of that stand on that, that told still send out that is will bring you more down the time. okay. talk to him and he thinks the downstairs to the child, re that reporting live from city condo. israel's media is reporting that the navy is deploying a version of the iron dome,
