  So an ISIS like beheading of a man for expressing his support of freedom of speech is to be blamed on Modi. This is Islamic apologia pure and simple. For weeks Islamists mobs have marched in India baying for blood saying anyone insulting the prophet will be beheaded. How is Islamic intolerance and Sharia blasphemy laws formulated supposedly 1000 years ago Modi's doing? When India banned the satanic verses after it was published, rioting after the ban by Islamist mobs led to dozens of deaths. [1]. In India, Islamists always believe rioting and murder is their birthright whenever they feel aggrieved. You are even factually wrong and read too much western propaganda. India has a federal structure. Most of the prosecutions of journalists have been by State governments who are not aligned with the Modi's govt. The federal govt actually has no policing ability and all ability to file police cases and arrests have to be done by State govts. Recently a state govt which is opposed tooth and nail to Modi, imprisoned a journalist for a facebook like and she was in prison for 30 days. No liberal outrage.
