An accusation from a pagan monkey worshipper is worth as much as a prayer to your light skinned elephant god
What next indian are you hoing to give advice about open defecation
Let him - since you may be unfamiliar with the routine. Interesting concept to expect when going to India so it doesn't come as a total shock.
Proof of the theory that money doesn't always bring sense, class or manners.

Hindus drink cow urine, Muslims drink camel urine - Same stupidity, different animal
300 Muslims died due to MERS virus because of drinking camel urine according to WHO
Hindus worship stone idols of gods, Muslims worship a black stone idol. - Again, Same stupidity, different idol
Hindus don't eat Cow, Muslims don't eat Pig - Same stupidity, different animal again
Hindus in Nepal mercilessly slaughter tens of thousands of bulls during Gadhimai festival. Muslims slaughter millions of goats, cows and other animals during Eid. Again, different animal, same stupidity and savagery
As you can see, both Hinduism and Islam are equally silly and savage. Just change the animals you want to kill/ drink the urine of/not eat and you pretty much convert.

Why is Modi backing Suu Kyi on Rohingya issue?
Ranjan Basu, Delhi
Published at 03:24 PM September 08, 2017
India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Myanmar's State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi talk to reporters during their joint press conference in the Presidential Palace in Naypyitaw, September 6, 2017.Reuters
India wants to improve its economic ties with Myanmar as part of its 'Act East' policy and push back against Chinese influence
Narendra Modi has kept mum on the plight of Rohingyas during his three-day Myanmar visit but said India shared Myanmar’s concern about “extremist violence” in its Rakhine state.
Indian observers say Modi’s announcement did not come as a surprise since it is only natural for India to prioritise business ties and strategy in its relations with Myanmar.
Modi visited Myanmar amid an army crackdown in the Rakhine that has so far forced an estimated 125,000 Rohingya refugees fleeing into Bangladesh.
Refugees and rights groups say hundreds of Rohingya have been killed in the military operation triggered by Rohingya insurgents’ August 25 attack on dozens of police posts and an army base.
Myanmar denies the claims. Naypyitaw does not recognise the Rohingyas, considered to be one of the most persecuted communities in the world, as its citizens, and sees them as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.
Almost all the diplomats, researchers and analysts the Bangla Tribune interviewed in Delhi said that Modi did not speak a word about the Rohingya crisis as India was desperate to improve its economic ties with resource-rich Myanmar.
India also refused to sign a global declaration adopted at an international conclave on Thursday as it referred to the violence against Rohingya.
‘Act East’ policy
Myanmar is India’s first stoppage in its Act East policy. Delhi is also keen to strengthen business ties with ASEAN members and considers Naypyitaw its gateway to Southeast Asia.
India’s bilateral trade with Myanmar has grown to about $2.2 billion and Delhi has invested heavily in connectivity projects through Myanmar, but these projects have moved slowly.
Naypyitaw is also Delhi’s partner in BIMSTEC and India wants to implement several connectivity projects through Myanmar – one of them is a trilateral highway passing through Myanmar to Thailand.
Former Indian ambassador to Myanmar VS Seshadri explained that India has so much stake in Myanmar in business and connectivity that Delhi cannot afford bitterness with Naypyitaw at any cost.
“Good relations with Myanmar is the first and most important condition for the success of our Act East policy,” he said.
The Chinese factor
Myanmar’s relations with China has improved further since Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy came to power. She travelled to Beijing after becoming the state counsellor.
China is also mediating peace talks between Myanmar’s various armed communities and constructing Kyauk Pyu port. Beijing has also set up gas pipelines up to Kunming.
Times of India’s Diplomatic Editor Indrani Bagchi said the situation has been gradually changing.
Myanmar is giving India a clear signal that it wants to maintain a balance between Delhi and Beijing because both are very important neighbours for Naypyitaw.
India sees this as an excellent opportunity to rekindle an old friendship, all the while pushing back against Chinese influence on Myanmar, she said.
Delhi will never want uncomfortable issues like violence against Rohingyas to cast a shadow on this scenario, Baghchi said.
Stability in the Rakhine
India is constructing the Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project at a cost of nearly $500 million through Rakhine, to directly connect India’s northeast with the Bay of Bengal.
It involves developing a port, an inland waterways terminal and a road. It can also serve as an alternative if Bangladesh ever refuses to give India transit.
Geopolitical stability in the region is a must for realising this important project.
Delhi has nearly finished the Sittwe port work where the Kaladan project starts. But construction of the Mizoram road through thick forest at the end of the Kaladan river path is stuck.
Gautam Mukhopadhaya, who retired last year after serving as Indian ambassador to Myanmar, said the 2012 violence in Rakhine pushed back the Kaladan project.
MyanmarAlmost all the labourers or local engineers, working in the project, were local Muslims who were forced to flee after violence erupted.
So, India needs peace and stability in the Rakhine for the sake of the Kaladan project, he added.
It is clear why Modi talked tough on “extremist violence” in the Rakhine.
Anti-militant operations
Four Indian states – Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Monipur, and Mizoram – share nearly 1,643km border with Myanmar.
Many northeastern extremist groups have hideouts in the deep forests along the border.
India has long been conducting anti-militant operations in these areas and at times, even struck the militants inside Myanmar.
It is clear that such operations are not possible without Naypyitaw’s consent and assistance.
Delhi has no other option but to maintain this cooperation with Myanmar to maintain peace in its northeast.
Delhi-based strategic thinktank Institute of Defence Studies and Analysis’ researcher Gautam Sen pointed out that most of the insurgent groups like the NSCN or ULFA, who are fighting against India, have hideouts or training centres in the Myanmar jungles.
“So, the assistance of Myanmar, and particularly its army’s assistance, is very important for India to eliminate these [insurgents],” he added.

Son, as for the JF17 deal, that has been done between China and Mayanmar. Those JF17s are being made in China not in PAC Kamra. If China find customers for thunder, good on them. Came back to us when those jets are actually used against the minorities, before that, you can shut your gob.
As I said, it came as no surprise how Modi jumped on this opportunity to help others in culling of minorities. He is expert in this field.
