Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, who announced the decisions on April 23 after meeting of Cabinet Committee on Security, stated that Pakistani nationals will not be permitted to travel to India under the SAARC Visa Exemption Scheme (SVES) visas.
Any SVES visas issued in the past to Pakistani nationals are deemed cancelled. Any Pakistani national currently in India under SVES visa was given 48 hours to leave India.
Meanwhile, following the steps by the Indian government, a total of 786 Pakistani nationals have left India via the Attari border within six days beginning April 24, said a senior official.
The terror attack, which claimed 26 lives in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam, was one of the deadliest attacks in the region since the 2019 Pulwama strike, which claimed the lives of 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) jawans.
