'It's our government's responsibility to provide security to all foreigners, diplomats or dignitaries who are allowed on proper Visa. Mr.Kasuri and the programme will be provided total security,' Fadnavis told ANI.
However, the Chief Minister warned that the organisers would be held responsible if there was any element of 'anti India propaganda' during the event.
'This doesn't mean that we endorse all views expressed in the programme,' Fadnavis added.
