NEW DELHI: Amid tensions running high between the two neighbours in the wake of terrorists’ strike at Uri Army base, India today summoned Pakistan High Commissioner to New Delhi Abdul Basit to the External Affairs Ministry to convey its tough message.
“#UriAttack Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar summons Pakistan High Commissioner Basit to MEA,” Vikas Swarup, official spokesperson of the MEA said in tweet.
The summoning of the High Commissioner comes at a time when pressure is mounting on the Indian government to give a befitting response to the September 18 ghastly terror attack, that left 18 soldiers dead. (AGENCIES)
