At least four foreign students have been injured after a Hindu far-right mob allegedly stormed a university hostel in India’s western Gujarat state and attacked the group of students for offering prayers during the holy month of Ramadan, local media has reported.
India’s Ministry of External Affairs on Sunday pledged to take “strict actions against the perpetrators”, as the local police in the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi said an investigation was under way in connection with the attack at the Gujarat University.
Thoroughly ashamed of my country
We should be angry at the people who did such acts of violent against foreigners as well as the people who support and embolden such people.
We should strongly oppose them peacefully and not let them take over our country.
