World is watching us: Jaishankar
The foreign minister further said, "The world is watching us. Elections are held, sometimes one party wins, and sometimes the other party wins. If there is no democracy in the country, such a change will not come. Results for all elections would be the same." His statement came after Gandhi made several comments against PM Narendra Modi during his ongoing 10-day US trip.
