'Countries that go to court' for deciding poll results giving us 'gyan': Jaishankar

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday hit out at the Western media over the “negative” coverage of Indian elections. He said 'countries that have to go to court for deciding election results” are giving “gyan” on conducting polls.
While speaking at the launch of the Bangla edition of his book 'Why Bharat Matters' in Kolkata  EAM S Jaishankar said on Tuesday "They western countries do want to influence us because many of these countries feel that these countries have influenced this world for the last 70–80 years. Western countries feel that they have influenced this world for the last 200 years. How do you expect for someone, who has been in that position to give up those old habits so easily".
