Radical Sikh activists who have been carrying out a legal campaign in US to shame the Indian government for perceived human rights excesses attempted to embarrass Modi ahead of his arrival in New York by initiating legal action, resulting in a court order seeking his response to the 2002 communal riots in Gujarat.

"While we cannot comment specifically on this lawsuit, I can tell you that as a general legal principle, sitting heads of government enjoy immunity from suits in American courts," one official said.

"Sitting heads of government also enjoy personal inviolability while in the United States, which means they cannot be personally handed or delivered papers or summons to begin the process of this," the official said, adding that, "as a matter of treaty, heads of delegation to the UN General Assembly enjoy immunity while in New York to attend the UN event.".................
