PM Modi asked to comment on the protests opposing his visit to the UK, questioning his 'reputation' as the chief minister of Gujarat, and the UK Visa ban.
First, to set the record straight, let me inform you I came here in 2003 and received a lot of welcome and respect in the ceremonies here.

India is the land of Buddha, India is the land of Gandhi. And that is why in our culture, there something in our veins that we don't accept anything against the primary values of our society. And that is why no matter in which corner of India something happens (koi bhi ghatna ghate), no matter if that is one incident, two or three in the land of 1.25 crore every such incident is serious we don't tolerate it at any cost. The law takes strict action and will do. And India is a vibrant democracy that under its constitution gives all the security to every citizen. And we are committed to that.
