India's foreign ministry's spokesman has said that "The action is uncalled for and displays lack of courtesy and sensitivity towards an elected chief minister of a state of India".

India's ruling party's spokesman said that "India will feel strongly when a CM is denied visa".

I am an Indian citizen and feel hurt and insulted at double standards being adopted by Bush administration and forcing its own laws on my country. After creating situations where lakhs of innocent people have been killed in Afghanistan and Iraq Bush administration is now in the process of hurting Indians.
It's just not the Bush Admistration Suresh. The U.S. has a history of adopting what could be called a Double Standard on a number of things.
