Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was “deeply concerned” after supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro broke into the country's congressional building, Supreme Court and presidential palace on Sunday. Taking to Twitter, PM Modi extended his support to the Brazilian government led by newly sworn-in President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. "Deeply concerned about the news of rioting and vandalism against the State institutions in Brasilia. Democratic traditions must be respected by everyone. We extend our full support to the Brazilian authorities," PM Modi tweeted, and tagged Brazil President Silva. In a grim echo of the US Capitol invasion two years ago, far-right leader Bolsonaro’s supporters on Sunday night stormed into and defaced Brazil’s presidential palace, flooded parts of Congress with a sprinkler system and ransacked ceremonial rooms in the Supreme Court in capital Brasilia.
