The White House on Monday condemned the online harassment of a journalist who questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the state of democracy in India.
Sabrina Siddiqui, a Wall Street Journal reporter, asked Modi during a press conference if India's claim to be the world's largest democracy was jeopardized as human rights groups denounce the government's treatment of Muslims.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre added that the Biden White House is “committed to the freedom of the press.”
