Leaders of all other parties support Sushma Swaraj's statement and condemn Pakistan, the treatment meted out to Kulbhushan Jadhav's mother and wife.

"Pakistan does not believe in democracy. They do not know how to treat the citizens of another country. The ill-treatment meted out to Jadhav's mother and wife is not only against the family but 130 crore people of India. The Congress condemns the treatment meted out to Kulbhushan Jadhav's family by Pakistan," said Ghulam Nabi Azad.

"Pakistan used the meeting between Kulbhushan Jadhav and his family was facilitated for propaganda. I spoke to Jadhav's mother and she told me that Kulbhushan first asked her about his father as he saw that she was not wearing my Mangalsutra or Sindoor. The mother and wife were showcased like widows to Kulbhushan," says Sushma Swaraj.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj is made her statement in Rajya Sabha on Kulbhushan Jadhav, the former Indian Navy officer who is on death row in Pakistan. She will later make a statement in the Lok Sabha. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi appealed for consensus in Parliament over the triple talaq bill which will be tabled today, but the Congress seemed in no mood to relent on the uproar over Union minister Ananthkumar Hedge’s remarks on the Constitution. Congress sources said that the party has objections to the criminality and jail clause in the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights of Marriage) Bill 2017, which makes instant triple talaq a non-bailable warrant with imprisonment of up to three jails. Rahul Gandhi’s tweet mocking Arun Jaitley’s Rajya Sabha statement may also send tempers flaring, a day after the BJP and Congress appeared to leave the bitterness of the Gujarat campaign behind them.
