India on Wednesday expelled a second official working at the Pakistan High Commission for "indulging in activities not in keeping with his official status" and directed the staff member to leave the country within 24 hours.
On May 13, another Pakistani official working at the High Commission was expelled for allegedly indulging in espionage in India.
The actions come amid heightened tensions over India’s strikes on terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) and subsequent military confrontation between the two countries.
In a statement on Wednesday, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the Indian government has declared a Pakistani official, working at the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi, "persona non grata for indulging in activities not in keeping with his official status in India". The official has been asked to leave India within 24 hours, it said.
