Earlier, ties between UAE and India came under fire after many Indian origin people were detained for Islamophobic comments and PM Modi himself had to intervene.
PM Modi tweeted — “Covid-19 does not see race, religion, color, caste, creed, language or borders before striking. Our response and conduct thereafter should attach primacy to unity and brotherhood. We are in this together.”

“All employees are paid to work, no one comes for free. You make your bread and butter from this land which you scorn and your ridicule will not go unnoticed,” the Princess said. The Princess also expressed her displeasure over evolving social reality in India, where the Hindus were pitted against the minority Muslims.

The tweet from the parody account states – “Oman stands with its Muslim brothers and sisters in India. If the Indian Govt doesn’t stop the persecution of Muslims, then 1million workers living in Oman may be expelled. I will definitely take up this issue with the Sultan of Oman. @narendramodi”
Pakistani journalists were quick to latch on to the tweet. Leading Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir retweeted the tweet the ‘Princess’ had shared.
