GUJARAT MASSACRE

Narednra Modi is accused of accused of initiating and fueling the violence in Gujarat in 2002. More than 1,000 people eventually died in the violence - most of them Muslims.

Modi was the then chief minister of the province. Police and government officials allegedly directed the rioters and gave lists of Muslim-owned properties to them.

Many Pakistani religious leaders have expressed fears of similar acts of persecution against Muslims in Kashmir under the current rule of Narendra Modi, who is now the prime minister of India.
