Pakistani naval unit collides with Indian Navy ship; MEA summons Islamabad's top diplomat
New Delhi: India summoned the Pakistani High Commission's Charge d'Affaires and lodged a strong protest on Wednesday after a Pakistani naval ship's actions in international waters caused a collision with an Indian Navy unit. The incident, described as "unacceptable" and "unprofessional" by India, did not result in significant damage but raised concerns within the highest security apparatus.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) summoned the Pakistani envoy to the MEA in New Delhi to lodge a strong protest over the Pakistani naval units' conduct. The MEA stated that the Pakistani ship's conduct violated Article 10 of the 1991 Agreement between India and Pakistan on Advance Notice on Military Exercises, Manoeuvres, and Troops Movements.
The MEA urged the Pakistani authorities to ensure all military units observe due care and respect the relevant agreements between the two nations to prevent any recurrence of such incidents. Additionally, India instructed its Charge d'Affaires in Islamabad to lodge a similar protest with Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
