\"\"Washington: The US Department of State has released its annual report on human rights around the world, which shows a mirror to India\u2019s Modi government.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the US Department of State\u2019s annual report on human rights says that India has either taken insufficient or rare action on serious human rights violations.<\/p>\n

According to the report, India has seen an increase in hate speech and violent incidents against minorities, and the Modi government has taken nominal action against officials involved in serious human rights violations.<\/p>\n

The report also presented evidence of India\u2019s notoriously controversial citizenship law being used against minorities. The United Nations has also called this law discriminatory.<\/p>\n

The US report expressed concern over India\u2019s laws punishing conversion as against religious freedom. The report also reported on the abrogation of Kashmir\u2019s special status by the Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Indian Parliament, in 2019 and the subsequent tightening of life sentences on Kashmiri Muslims.<\/p>\n

The report also expressed deep concern over the demolition of Muslim properties by the Indian government.<\/p>\n

The Indian government, displaying its traditional stubbornness, said that it rejected the allegations made in the US report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
