Pakistan and India will resolve the issue of harassment of the diplomats stationed in each other’s country.
Both the countries simultaneously announced the agreement on Friday from their respective offices, Pakistan's Foreign Office and the Indian Ministry of External Affairs.
The neighbors would discuss the issue of the harassment of the diplomats in line with the 1992 'Code of Conduct' for treatment of Diplomatic/Consular personnel in India and Pakistan.
The statement by the Foreign Office reads, ''India and Pakistan have mutually agreed to resolve matters related to the treatment of diplomats and diplomatic premises, in line with the 1992 'Code of Conduct' for treatment of Diplomatic/Consular personnel in India and Pakistan.''
The agreement came following Pakistan's complaint to the Indian government that there had been many incidents of its officials and their families being 'bullied' and 'harassed' in Delhi. According to Islamabad, its deputy high commissioner’s car was chased and his driver was abused by a group of men.
India too complained to Pakistan that its diplomatic staff was also being mistreated in Islamabad.
