Modi's victory in elections won't be good for region, says Hina Rabbani Khar.

LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan Peoples Party leader and former foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar has Thursday said that Narendra Modi portrayed a horrible face of India in front of the world, and his victory in the general elections will not prove good for the region.

Hina Rabbani Khar maintained that Narendra Modi and his right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) promoted extremism and benefited from fanaticism.

The former minister further added that Narendra Modi has completely hijacked the BJP, and it would be premature to comment regarding India’s behavior right now. Dialogues with India are in Pakistan’s interest, she stressed.

Let it be known that Narendra Modi’s Hindu-nationalist party scored a historic victory in India’s general election, his foreign minister said on Thursday, as officials counted hundreds of millions of votes after the massive, multi-stage poll.
