India summons Malaysia’s top diplomat in New Delhi


PETALING JAYA: India’s Ministry of External Affairs has summoned Malaysia’s acting head of mission in New Delhi to convey its displeasure over remarks by Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad about the Citizenship Amendment Act.

The Wire, an Indian news website, said “the summoning of the Malaysian embassy’s charge d’affaires took place a day after India had issued an official statement urging the Malaysian leader to refrain from commenting on India’s internal affairs, ‘especially without a right understanding of the facts’.”
