New Delhi witnessed a significant diplomatic upheaval as India expelled a second Pakistani official from its High Commission. The Pakistani diplomat was declared persona non grata and was given 24 hours to leave the country. This expulsion follows a recent arrest of a YouTube travel vlogger accused of spying for Pakistan, intensifying the ongoing espionage investigation.
The Indian government stated that the Pakistani official engaged in activities inconsistent with his official status, prompting the immediate deportation. This diplomatic action coincides with the aftermath of Operation Sindoor, a military counterstrike by Indian Armed Forces against Pakistani targets. The tensions between the two neighbouring countries have escalated, with continuing accusations and retaliations on both sides.
India’s Ministry of External Affairs has reiterated commitment to national security and counter-terrorism efforts while dismissing Pakistan’s baseless allegations linking India to terrorism within its borders.
The diplomatic move underlines India’s stringent stance amid heightened security concerns. Analysts believe this will impact bilateral relations and regional stability.
