India Asks Pak to Address Shortcomings in Bill Relating to Kulbhushan Jadhav’s Right to Appeal

New Delhi: India has called out the "shortcomings" of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) Review and Reconsideration Bill 2020 passed by the Pakistani National Assembly saying it "does not create a machinery" to "facilitate effective review and reconsideration" when it comes to Kulbhushan Jhadav case.

The Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson, Arindam Bagchi at the weekly virtual presser said, "The Bill codifies into law the earlier Ordinance with all its shortcomings."

He pointed out, "The International Court of Justice had ruled that Pakistan was in breach of its international obligations because of the failure to provide consular access to Shri Jadhav."
