New Delhi: Days after Chinese Defence Minister General Liang Guanglie
triggered a diplomatic headache during his recent trip to India by gifting
Rs 100,000 in sealed envelopes to two Indian Air Force (IAF) pilots, New
Delhi is mulling lodging a protest with Beijing over the incident.
According to a report in Mail Today, joint secretary (Air) in the Ministry
of Defence has sent a letter to the East Asia division of the Ministry of
External Affairs, directing it to lodge a protest.
Also, a report is being sent to the Prime Minister's Office.
The report adds that Indian Ambassador to China S Jaishankar is expected to
communicate New Delhi’s annoyance to the Chinese foreign office.
Also, the report said that the Indian government is not ruling out a spying
angle to the whole matter.
General Liang Guanglie's 'tip' to pilots is seen as a conscious act to
assess if the pilots could be bought over by luring them with money for
missions.
The pilots, who flew the visiting minister by special IAF aircraft from
Mumbai to Delhi on Monday, were given two sealed envelopes after they landed
in New Delhi. When they opened the envelopes, they found Rs 100,000 in
Indian currency.
They informed the commanding officer, who in turn told the air officer
commanding about the unusual gift.
It was decided that the cash gift would be deposited in the 'toshkhana' (
government depository).
The sources pointed out although it is not Indian convention to accept gifts
in cash, it could not be returned due to the sensitivities involved.
General Liang is the first Chinese defence minister to visit India in the
last eight years. He held wide-ranging talks with his Indian counterpart AK
Antony on Tuesday that culminated in the two sides deciding to resume joint
military sources. | d*b 发帖数: 21830 | 2 估计不久前坐鱼鹰也给了美军飞行员一万美刀的tip
