He underlined this as a jolt for India.

Furthermore, the FM cited the opposition is criticizing the Indian government.

Shah Mahmood said several Indian troops were killed and injured in a clash with China.

He said there is a tension between India and Nepal, and India-Bangladesh relationship warmth has also reduced.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi said India wanted to isolate Pakistan, but it itself has been isolated.

The Foreign Minister said Pakistan provided India consular access to its spy Kulbhushan Jadhav yesterday, but the Indian diplomats avoided talking to him.

He said India’s ill intentions have been exposed as it did not want access to its spy.

On the other hand, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that Pakistan gave second consular access to Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav on Thursday but both the officials of Indian High Commission left the meeting, even ignoring his calls.

Pakistan gave the consular access to the Indian spy under agreed terms but the Indian officials did not listen or speak to him.

The minister said this in a statement on Thursday.

He said: “We removed a glass between the spy and the Indian officials. An audio and video recording equipment was also removed on their request. All such steps were taken to facilitate the meeting.”
