Don't you just love those who stand up to bullies?

India has my admiration in this particular case. Tit for Tat is the way to go. I believe one of India's PMs, either in an interview or quoted somewhere in a biography, said: "India's biggest resource is her people, every single one of them" when asked about India's biggest resource.  

I can understand that the deputy consul-general was arrested because of allegations of slave labor,  but why would the police department want to do a strip search?  Did they suspect she was hiding more "slaves" inside her vagina and anus?

I smirk gleefully when analysts are proven wrong.  Analysts thought that the incident would have no more repercussions after the woman departed for India.  Dear USA,  you won't ever hear the last of this from India.  India is a land inhabited by many elephants and you know what they say about elephants don't you?

.... India asked the United States   on Friday to withdraw a diplomat from the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi, the latest retaliation in a smouldering diplomatic dispute touched off by the arrest and strip search of an Indian diplomat in New York.

The case has caused a serious rift between the United States and India, where officials have described the treatment of Devyani Khobragade, India's deputy consul general in New York, as barbaric. Khobragade, a 39-year-old mother of two, is accused of exploiting her Indian-born housekeeper and nanny, allegedly having her work more than 100 hours a week for low pay and lying about it on a visa form. Khobragade has maintained her innocence.

Friday's demand by India's Foreign Ministry came just hours after the two sides appeared to have struck a compromise of sorts: Khobragade was indicted by a U.S. federal grand jury in Manhattan, but also granted immunity that allowed her to leave the country. She was on a flight to India on Friday, and many believed that would be enough to give both countries a way to save face.
Given their strategic bilateral partnership and more than $100 billion in trade, any further escalation in the case would not be in the interest of either country, analysts said.

But on Friday evening, the Foreign Ministry said an unnamed American diplomat of the same rank as Khobragade was somehow involved in the case and should leave the country, the Press Trust of India news agency reported. Recalling a diplomat is a serious, and fairly unusual, move that sends a message to Washington that India's government doesn't accept the legitimacy of the court action in New York.

Calls to the U.S. Embassy were not immediately returned.
Much of the outrage over the case in India stems from the circumstances of Khobragade's arrest, which were seen as unnecessarily humiliating — something that resonates deeply in the country. Khobragade was picked up Dec. 13 and then strip-searched while in custody, which the U.S. Marshals say is common practice.....
