> The quirk here is that India and many Hindu nationals disagree that this is all he was doing, and they instead basically brand him as something closer to a terrorist responsible for murders.
It seems you are ignorant of the history behind this issue. This whole thing started it had nothing to do with "Hindu nationalists". It was the opposition party - Congress - which had ordered an army attack on the Sikh sacred ground - The Golden Temple in Amristar. When the Air India bombing happened, even then Congress was in charge.
The larger point is that West is ignorant of India's concerns. Previously, it was an issue of "botched" investigation and Indian justice and legal system. Now the garb is "Hindu nationalists".
At the end there is always some story about "freedom of expression" as well. It is nothing new.
