NEW DELHI: Statistics indicate that India's crime rate has dropped due to the 21-day nationwide lockdown to tackle the spread of coronavirus, with states such as Delhi and Karnataka recording a decline of up to 50%.

In an interview to Mint, Kapoor spoke about why he had posted the unusual warning, whether India’s image in the UAE and the larger Arab world had been affected by the social media posts of some individuals and on some recent critical remarks against India by the Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC).
