===Accusations of Anti-India bias===
Roy has accused India of amassing 7,00,000 troops in the troubled state of Jammu and Kashmir [http://www.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=68135]. Her book entitled "[[The Algebra of Infinite Justice]]”, is critical of Indian control in Kashmir, Nagaland and Manipur [http://www.sandeepweb.com/2006/01/17/thanks-verbal-terrorist/]. Many times it is indicated from her statements that she does not have any faith in Indian Judiciary and law; to cite an example, she defended parlimentaryparliamentary bomb accused Afzal by saying that his case is full of false evdenceevidence and fabricated stories [http://specials.rediff.com/news/2006/oct/04sld01.htm]. She believes that
there is no democracy in India and surprisingly she says this to an audience in New York [http://www.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=68135].Roy has also been criticized for fabricating [[anti-Hindu]] statements concerning the [[2002 Gujarat Violence]] by BJP Member of Parliament Balbir Punj, who debunked many of her assertions regarding the actions of Hindu rioters[http://www.outlookindia.com/full.asp?fodname=20020527&fname=Column+Balbir+%28F%29&sid=1].
