Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said Indian Muslims will live and die for India and will not dance to the tune of terror outfits such as al-Qaeda.
“My understanding is that they are doing injustice towards Muslims of our country. If anyone thinks Indian Muslims will dance to their tune, they are delusional. Indian Muslims will live for India. They will die for India. They will not want anything bad for India,” Mr. Modi said during an interview to CNN scheduled for telecast on Sunday evening. The Prime Minister was replying to a question by Fareed Zakaria on whether he was worried about al-Qaeda head Ayman-al-Zawahiri’s video announcing the attempt to create a base in India. Mr. Modi was asked about the fact that of the 170 million Muslims in India, there seemed to be very few or no members of al-Qaeda.
