India has vehemently rejected allegations made in a recent ABC News documentary that purportedly uncovers attempts by Indian intelligence agents to meddle in Australia's national security affairs. The External Affairs Ministry spokesperson, Randhir Jaiswal, criticized the documentary, describing its contents as 'blatant untruths' and 'biased reporting.'

During his weekly media briefing, Jaiswal asserted that the documentary appears to be designed with a specific agenda to 'malign India.' He emphasized that India opposes any endeavor to condone or glorify terrorism.

The controversial documentary, titled 'Infiltrating Australia - India's Secret War,' claimed that Indian intelligence agents sought to gain access to sensitive defense technology and airport security protocols. It also alleged that Indian spies were expelled from Australia in 2020 for attempting to steal classified information.
