Delhi:India summoned Pakistan’s top diplomat, Saad Ahmad Warraich, in New Delhi late last night and a formal persona non grata note was handed over for all Pakistani military diplomats, sources confirmed.
India’s strong diplomatic retaliation follows the attack in Pahalgam, which left 26 people dead, including 25 Indians and one Nepali national.The forced scaling down of Pakistan’s High Commission in New Delhi, including the expulsion of all Pakistani Defence, Naval, and Air Advisors, is seen as one of the most consequential measures taken by India following the Pahalgam attack.
They have been given a week’s time to exit.Indian counterparts will also be withdrawn from Islamabad.
This move, seen as a prelude to a possible complete shutdown of the High Commission, has already rattled Pakistan’s Foreign Office, as it has been completely cut off diplomatically by India.
