India's highest judiciary on Friday asked former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Nupur Sharma to "apologise to the whole country" for her remarks on the Prophet Muhammad. "It is shameful. She (Sharma) should apologise to the whole country," Justice Surya Kant of a two-judge bench of the Supreme Court said, while hearing her plea seeking a transfer of all FIRs filed against her across the country to Delhi.

"She thinks she has back up of power and can make any statement without respect to the law of the land." Soon after the Supreme Court's remarks on Sharma, India's main opposition Congress party's leader Rahul Gandhi blamed the BJP-led federal government for fanning anti-Muslim sentiments across the country.  In fact, Sharma's remarks sparked massive protests by Muslims across the country last month and also triggered a diplomatic row between India and many Muslim-majority countries -- the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Indonesia, Kuwait and Qatar to name a few.
