The White House is not familiar with the BBC documentary on Prime Minister Narendra Modi but is familiar with the “democratic values” that the United States and India share, a US state department spokesperson said.

Responding to a question raised by a Pakistani journalist on the BBC documentary critical of PM Modi, US state department spokesperson Ned Price said, "I am not familiar with the documentary you're referring to. I am very familiar with the shared values that enact the United States and India as two thriving, vibrant democracies.”

Calling India's democracy a vibrant one, he said "we look to everything that ties us together, and we look to reinforce all of those elements that tie us together," as he underlined the diplomatic ties that US and India share with each other.

UK's national broadcaster BBC aired a two-part series attacking PM Narendra Modi's tenure as Gujarat Chief Minister during the Gujarat riots of 2002. The documentary sparked outrage and was removed from select platforms.
