Miller has stated unequivocally that, as is the case with any nation in the globe, the US wants to see everyone in Pakistan treated with respect for human rights. Arvind Kejriwal is presently being held in Tihar Jail and is anticipated to be released from judicial custody on April 15. He was detained in the Delhi excise policy case.
The term “Maryada” was used by External Minister S Jaishankar to highlight that nations shouldn’t meddle in one another’s domestic matters in reaction to comments made against Indian politics by the US, Germany, and the UN.
