"Actual politics" is being conducted "ostensibly as media" by people who do not have the "courage to come into political field," External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar told ANI, alluding to the controversial BBC documentary on Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Terming the furore as "politics by another means," Mr Jaishankar, in an interview with ANI, said, "Sometime politics of India doesn't even originate in its borders, it comes from outside."
