The New York Times published an article accusing various journalists and activist groups (including Code Pink) who criticised USAmerican imperialism - including some Indian ones - were Chinese state proxies. I suspect this "information" had already been passed around US political elites resulting in Pelosi's reaction.
The New York Times article was followed shortly by the Indian fascist government arresting / torturing journalists that were allegedly associated with those mentioned in the article; Indian governments have long accused journalists critical of them as Chinese proxies (eg "urban Naxalites") because they document atrocities such as in Kashmir, and BJP-associated pogroms where they go to a village and kill every Muslim/Christian/lower-caste child and woman. The raids lasted over 100 days.
The liberals in the comments here do not understand or care the extent of depravity that is the American Empire.
Don’t forget the time India killed a Sikh dude in Canada, that shit was crazy
