(Video) Rajya Sabha TV (RSTV) The Big Picture: India-Pakistan Downgrade Ties

Topic: India-Pakistan Downgrade Ties

Guest:

  • Maj. Gen. Ashwani Siwach (Retd., Defence Expert)
  • Jitendra Nath Misra, (Former Ambassador)
  • Shakti Sinha, (Foreign Affairs Expert)

Topic Description:

India last week asked Pakistan to reduce its staff strength in the country by half, a decision that came just weeks after the police expelled two Pakistani staffers at the high commission in Delhi on charges of spying. In the tit-for-tat action that followed, Pakistani security agencies picked two Indian high commission staffers in Islamabad, tortured them and framed them in a false case of a road accident and possession of fake currency. The external affairs ministry told Pakistan about India’s continuing concern about the activities of officials of its mission in Delhi who have been engaged in acts of espionage and dealing with terrorist organisations. The Government of India has taken the decision to reduce the staff strength in the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi by 50%. It would reciprocally reduce its own presence in Islamabad to the same proportion.
