International Court of Justice had in July ordered Pakistan to give consular access to Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav. There has been no progress since.
Following the ICJ verdict, Pakistan had informed India it would grant consular access to Kulbhushan Jadhav by Friday, a proposal New Delhi said it was considering.
The external affairs ministry said it will reply to Pakistan through diplomatic channels on its proposal, which follows the ICJ verdict in the Kulbhushan Jadhav case.
Pakistan is believed to have put "pre-conditions" to give consular access to Jadhav. It has also refused to clarify if it plans to shift case from military court to a civil one.
The claim that VB-GRAMG provides an employment guarantee is incorrect. The only guarantee is to 'empower' the Centre to allow partial implementation in notified areas alone.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
