Israeli official called out the claims that the Israelis are hurling "racist" remarks on the Indians willing to join the IDF.

An Israeli Embassy official in India has called out Varsha Gandikota, co-general coordinator of Progressive International, over her claims that Israelis hurled “racist" remarks at Indians “willing to join the IDF".

Guy Nir, Spokesperson of the Israeli Embassy in India, described Gandikota’s remarks as “100% fake news" and stressed that Israelis have love for the Indians.

“100% fake news. Honestly madam, where do you get your information from? Israelis love Indians," Nir posted on X, while quoting the tweet containing her statements.

What Did Varsha Gandikota Say?

In a video shared on X, Gandikota alleged that several right-wing youth in India are “queuing up outside the Israeli embassy in Delhi" to fight for the Israeli Defence Forces.

“Because of the merging of the Zionist and Hindutva ideology, large numbers of right wing young people have been need to fall prey to right wing ideology where they sing let we’ll go fight for the IDF and queuing up outside the Israeli embassy in Delhi and saying we will kill Muslims because that’s really the ideology that the government has proposed," she claimed in the video.

“It also believes that he can get a ticket in a way that he can pay the price for the ticket into the exclusive club of the global north into the western civilisation, so to speak, by killing some Muslims in its own backyard. But the response from both everyday common Israelis has been brutal and racist. On social media, as soon as they heard about this, they’ve gone we don’t actually want dirty Indians to be coming here. Tagging the IDF and saying don’t let them into our army," Gandikota added.
