Huma Qureshi opens up on
PM Modi’s Minority Rights issue

Social Media sensation Huma Qureshi, currently promoting her latest release Tarla, in an interview was asked if it was right to question Prime Minister Narendra Modi on minority
rights in India amid his US visit.

For those unversed, amid a joint
press briefing alongside US President Joe Biden amid his maiden State visit to the United States PM Narendra Modi denied any discrimination against religious minorities in India amid his maiden State visit to the United States.

While reacting to the same, Huma in an interview, made it known that she never realised that she is a Muslim and different. Her father is running a restaurant, Saleem’s in Kailash Colony (of Delhi) since 50 years. In her personal experience, she has never felt it. People might have felt it. Having said that, she feels that questions should be asked and every government should answer..

To a question on measures his government is willing to take to improve the rights of minorities in the country, PM Modi had said, “Democracy is India’s spirit, it runs in the veins of its people and they live democracy in their daily lives”.

PM Modi went on to add that “We are into democracy and as President Biden advocated India and America both have democracy in theur hour DNA. Democracy is in our spirit and we live it and it’s written in our Constitution…So no question of discrimination on the grounds of caste, creed or religion arises,” PM Modi said.

Meanwhile, Huma’s film Tarla is available to stream on ZEE5. It is based on the inspiring journey of renowned Indian chef Tarla Dalal.

Besides, Huma, the film also features Sharib Hashmi in the lead role. The Piyush Gupta directorial is produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and Nitesh Tiwari.
