Narendra Modi and the U.S. State Department

Infidel Pride says:

We all know about the Hindu attacks on Muslims in Gujarat -- why, the State Department banned Narendra Modi, who ran the Gujarat government, from entering the United States.

I thought that the State Department believes in promoting democracy worldwide, right? Well, Modi . . . got re-elected in Gujarat with a thumping majority, winning 65% of the seats. So will the State Department now lift the ban on him (of course, he was always democratically elected, and unlike Hitler or Saddam, it wasn't simply a one time election).

Or is the State Department belief in democracy restricted to just Islamic hellholes? Or worse, does the State Department only act when congressmen from Dearbornistan lobby for such exclusions?

Not that Modi needs any visa - his would-be, or rather would-not-be hosts here - use video-conferences whenever they need him.
