In ‘India vs UK’, former diplomat Syed Akbaruddin writes that India was prompted to enter the ICJ election ring in the wake of the Kulbhushan Jadhav case.
MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi also called upon Pakistan to comply with the judgment of ICJ in the case related to Jadhav and grant consular access to India without further delay.
According to a report in The Express Tribune, Islamabad HC Tuesday adjourned the hearing of the govt's plea at the request of the Attorney General for Pakistan Khalid Javed Khan.
The ICJ (Review and Re-consideration) Bill, 2020 is aimed at allowing alleged Indian spy Jadhav to have consular access in line with the International Court of Justice verdict.
