India summons Pakistan envoy over call to separatist leader
India on Wednesday summoned Pakistan's High Commissioner, Sohail Mahmood, to protest against Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi's phone call to separatist leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq from the All Parties Hurriyat Conference. Qureshi's "actions are tantamount to direct interference in the internal affairs of its neighbour", the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a statement.
