India on Tuesday summoned Iranian Ambassador Ali Chegeni and lodged a strong protest with him over the comments made by Iran's foreign minister Javad Zarif over violence in Delhi.
Official sources said that the Iranian envoy was conveyed that Zarif commented on a matter which is purely internal to India.
In a tweet on Monday, Zarif said," Iran condemns the wave of organised violence against Indian muslims."
