nice to crime rules. ah, were conglomerates make their own laws? through vague, it doesn't matter. the only criteria is worked. we'll hook people. we shed light on the opaque world. who's behind benefits. and why are they a threat to whistle o peak world this week on d. w? with this is deed of the news asia coming up today, anger against india after empty islam comments from its ruling party. statement insulting the prophet mohammed generating protest and condemnation from the wider muslim world. it's brought into focus what one official called systemic hate speech

against muslims in india. how damaging will this be for the country? an expert from bad aim on says plus later in the program, the hacker turned protector. this man wants defrauded millions of the earnings, but is now helping the vietnamese government. keep millions safe from cyber crime. ah. i've been expanded. you welcome to d w. news asia. glad you could join us. india is facing international criticism and protests after spokespersons of the ruling b. j. b party made derogatory comments about the prophet mohammed, gulf states, and the wider muslim world have condemned india and some have demanded official apologies. over the matter, india has distanced itself from the 2 spokespersons calling them coat fringe

elements. and the b j. b has disciplined them. but that hasn't come the anger o muslim activists taking to the streets of india and in neighboring pakistan, protesting what they see as the latest insults from india's ruling party against their religion. but this time, the outrage is coming from foreign governments to katara kuwait, indonesia and malaysia, have all summoned their indian ambassadors to protest and saudi arabia also lodge complaints anger to from the organisation of islamic co operation. the i o c. it said these cases of defamation are part of a growing spate of hatred and defamation of islam in india and systematic practices against indian muslims. the outcry is focused on new poor sharma who as a spokeswoman for prime minister now hender modi's

b. j. p. party made remarks seen as insulting his lands prophet muhammad and his wife, the b. j. p. took no action until the sudden chorus of diplomatic anger. the party has now suspended sharma membership and expelled another spokesman. but one observer has told dw news that baiting muslims is in the b j p's. dna. it's partly what been pilot is and part me, it's a part of the record ideology. and that's way, since last 8 years, it wins wisdom or the become the prime minister. this demonization of the, of the muslim and even as ation of bessler and beaman as a sion of minorities had become such as that the biggest when dissenting the outcry has also taken on in economic dimension with shop owners. and some muslim states boycotting indian goods. but it's doubtful that could impress him. do nationalists, there might we look at the screen, but the chord will remain the same. i don't think the chord will change. physiology

might change the language might change, but the targeting of the muslims were going to still, the international outcry seems to have forced india's b j. p onto a road. it was not expecting to take and gentlemen are for more from a monomer in a bahrain is hassan. i'll her son. he's a research fellow for middle east policy or the think tank, the international institute for strategic studies. miss allison welcome. in the us, foreign ministry has said that these are comments on the prophet mom and what those off a fringe elements. and that the government respects all religions. i mean, is this explanation going to be enough for gulf states in particular. thanks for having me on the show. i think it's fairly difficult to call these elements french elements. i'm. this is ultimately the big piece national spokesperson and there have been other high ranking gd officials who have been have had their membership suspended for a similar comments. i think the anti muslim rhetoric has become fairly normalized

that has become fairly mainstream and india today. so i think the is the mystery of external affairs, explanation that these are fringe elements. i don't think is very credible. but i do think that the gulf states are very much interested in containing this issue. and so the indian government has moved fairly swiftly and distancing itself from these comments. the b, j, p. the ordering party itself has also attempted to distance itself from these comments that is suspended number sharma, the spokesperson in question. and also other officials just have in general, i think it's for the gulf states. i mean, they traditionally have always shied away from interfering. and india domestic politics and have done their level best to do so. even when other muslim states, such as iran or turkey, or even malaysia under the former prime minister, might have been pam that criticized india for say,

revoking article $370.00 and changing the status of demo kashmir because they have held back traditionally because they've always thought to not to interfere, but insulting the profit when the spokesperson of the ruling party insults the prophet muhammad on satellite tv. that's a different ball game altogether that i use this to be an internal matter. i never have to ask you because you said that it doesn't appear very credible in dallas response so far. how then can gulf states in particular for example, move past this? i think so on the one hand and the fact that the the gothics can't appear as doing nothing because within days of no per sharma making those comments on t v. these comments are picked up on the circulated in social media and they've generated a very hostile reaction among people on the golf and not just on social media. i mean, i, i live here and i see the outrage that this has this is generated here among real

people. and so the gulf states couldn't really just stand by and be seen as doing nothing. they have to take a strong position on this. but i think that the gulf states view india as an important partner just as much as india, use them as being key relations. and so i think they, they will try and contain this work. would probably work with the indian government to make sure that such comments are not, are not made again, it's interesting to see how the indian government to try to approach that. so on the one hand, they've appeared very conciliatory and their relations in india's relation to the gulf states or but the indian government at the same time, has hit back against the organization of the standard cooperation of the i see very hard and has criticize the i see for condemning those, those remarks. and so i think bye bye bye by taking this sort of 2 pronged approach . and this is a traditional indian tactic of appeasing the gulf states bilaterally. but hitting hard to guess the i c. by doing so,

the indian government is trying to repair its the diplomatic relations with and contain those, those differences with key partners of the goals while still catering to chauvinistic nationalistic constituents back home by hitting hard against the i see where i think some of the criticism in india has been that if these kind of anti stomach comments, and if you're deciding the profit mom is red line, then why isn't the detention of up to 1000000 muslims and chinese camps and changing a red line. i mean about in saudi arabia, the u. e. among the 45 countries that back to china of the u. n. in 2020. when it came to its stand in nation. jang. so as a matter of fact, the gulf states have also not interfered and have not made very, very lynch remarks about a lot of the communal hatred and violence that goes on in india. and they haven't

taken, as i said, a very strong stand on. and this revocation of article 370 on kashmir. the problem is that insulting the profits and that's just because of the gulf states, a traditional policy of not interfering and the affairs of other nations. and so the gothics are not singularly single mindedly animated by muscle causes around the world. they realize that they've got important relationships, relationships and partnerships with things like india and china and therefore do their best not to interfere in what the states consider to be. then their internal matters, but when it comes to something, the prophet muhammad, that crosses a, that's a, that's a different thing altogether. and there have been previous instances where it's also the profit, mama in places like denmark and france, have also cast their shadow on diplomatic relations between arab and muslim states and these and these countries. so india isn't being singled out in any respect. i

think what the indian government under moody has done is really it's been somewhat of a paradox and he has relations with the gulf states and the muslim world. whereas on the one hand, domestically the beach, if you ruling party, has pursued a fairly divisive communal agenda, directed especially at the muslims. and on the other hand, that prime minister movie has probably a directed more diplomatic energy towards the relations of the gulf states than any prime minister, any other prime minister in india's history. and he's attempted to maintain this artificial separation between the domestic agenda and india's form relations of the gulf. i think no per sharma has almost entirely up and it does strategy by insulting the profit and bringing international attention to the domestic political agenda. we'll have to leave there for that. i mean, we're thank you so much for joining us today. has on allison from the international institute for strategic studies. thank you so much. my pleasure. thank you for
