India gets tough with US: No VIP treatment for US envoys across India

December 17, 2013 15:18

India gets tough finally.

India has asked for details of salaries of staff in US embassies and consulates, withdrawal of airport passes of all consulates and embassies, visa details of all teachers at US schools, salaries paid and bank account details. There is no thoroughfare outside US embassies and consulates for years. Salaries paid to their Indian domestic staff will be under scrutiny.

India has said if any US personnel is held in a white-collar crime like Devyani Khobragade was, the treatment meted out to her by the US, will be mirrored in India.
