India asks High Commission staff to withdraw kids from Pakistan schools

NEW DELHI: India on Monday declared Pakistan a “non-school mission”, asking its officials in the High Commission in Islamabad to withdraw their children from schools there, indicating further deterioration in relations between the two countries.
New Delhi’s advisory has come a few days after the UN-proscribed terrorist and Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed led an anti-India rally to the Indian High Commission, which led to New Delhi expressing its concern about the security of its people posted in Islamabad.
Talking about the advisory, Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Vikas Swarup said, “It is a normal practice for all countries to review staffing and related policies for their diplomatic missions, including in view of prevailing circumstances at those stations.
The advisory means that around 50 schoolgoing children of the Indian staff will study outside Pakistan from this academic session onwards, signalling its “downgrade” to a “non-school mission”.
“With effect from this academic session, officials posted in the High Commission of India in Islamabad have been advised to make arrangements for education of their wards outside Pakistan, till further notice,” Swarup added.
Verbal altercations have been happening between the two countries almost on a daily basis since the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani earlier in July and talks have been put on hold.
On Saturday, Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj issued a statement slamming Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for his “delusional and “dangerous dream of coveting Kashmir”.
Pakistan has been trying to provoke India by labelling Wani as a “popular Kashmiri leader”. Much to India’s chagrin, it then tried to internationalise the Kashmir issue by raising it at the high-level thematic debate on human rights at the United Nations on July 14.
India dismissed Pakistan’s rhetoric as “cynical and misguided”. Despite this rebuff, Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN Maleeha Lodhi reiterated Islamabad’s “principled policy of providing moral and diplomatic support to the Kashmiri cause”.
Earlier, during the Kargil Conflict in 1999, the diplomatic relations between the two nuclear-powered neighbours were so strained that they routinely accused each other of kidnapping and beating diplomats.
