India's Hindu nationalists, under fire for triggering a nuclear arms race in the region, have lost the support of a key ally in parliament over an unrelated issue, newspapers reported Friday (28/5). The Trinamul (Grassroots) Congress party said late Thursday that
it was "suspending" legislative support for the minority government over its alleged failure to control violence in the eastern state of West Bengal.
