New Delhi: India has been seeking actions by the Maladvia government to post and social media articles in local media targeting Indian diplomats in men.
The government quotes the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations to say that the article “Dangerous and Motivated” can damage the “tested time” relationship between the two countries.
In official communication, India asked the Maldives government to ensure improved security for Indian mission and diplomats and to act, in accordance with local and international laws, against the “serious violations” of the Vienna Convention.
The government said repeated articles on local media and social media posts have targeted Indian diplomat dignity and these attacks dangerous and more personal.
The government quotes Article 29 of the Vienna Convention said “People from diplomatic agents must be contested” and call to the recipient country to take the right steps to prevent attacks on their freedom and dignity.
Some of these articles have, as the source said, alleged that Indian diplomats were protected by the regional government which remained friendly with New Delhi.
India and Maldives have enjoyed a very good relationship since the former Democratic Party Maladdivian President Mohamed Nasheed came to the office.
Sources do not rule out the possibility of certain parts of the media targeting India on the opposition command.
India also said in the verbale record that this attack was intended to create hostility between Maladvia and the Government of India and also between the two countries.
The government also warns men that such attacks can damage the relationship between the two countries.
Given the opening of the Vienna Convention, the government said diplomatic privileges were not intended to benefit individuals but to ensure the performance of an efficient foreign mission.
