India has reportedly summoned the top diplomat from Pakistan’s embassy to give notice that all defence advisers in its mission are persona non grata

India has summoned Pakistan’s top diplomat in New Delhi, local media reported on Thursday, a day after it announced measures to downgrade ties with Islamabad over a deadly militant attack in Kashmir.

A day after suspected militants killed 26 men at a tourist destination in Kashmir – in the worst attack on civilians in the country in nearly two decades – Indian foreign secretary Vikram Misri said there was cross-border involvement in the attack and that New Delhi would suspend a six-decade old river-sharing treaty, as well as close the only land crossing between the neighbours.
