Шаблон:Short description The High Commission of the Republic of India in Islamabad is the diplomatic mission of India to Pakistan. From 1976-1989, 1999-2004, and 2007-2008, the mission was known as the Embassy of India, Islamabad due to Pakistan's withdrawal or suspension from the Commonwealth of Nations during those time periods. Indo-Pakistani diplomatic relations were suspended on two separate occasions, in 1971 due to the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, and from 2001-2003 due to the 2001 Indian Parliament attack and 2001–2002 India–Pakistan standoff[1][2]In 2019, in response to India's revocation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan downgraded diplomatic ties with India. Since then, the diplomatic mission is being headed by a Chargé d'affaires. The incumbent Charge d'affaires is Geetika Srivastava, who is also the first woman to head the Indian diplomatic mission to Pakistan.[3][4]

History
Sri Prakasa, an Indian freedom fighter and politician was appointed as the first Indian high commissioner to Pakistan upon the request of Jawaharlal Nehru.

The Indian High Commission moved to Islamabad in 1966 upon the relocation of Pakistan's capital city to Islamabad.[8]
Diplomatic tensions
Amidst the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan were suspended as India recalled its High Commissioner from Pakistan. Diplomatic relations would be restored in 1976 and the Indian High Commissioner would return to Pakistan.[9]
In 2001, in the aftermath of the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, India recalled its diplomatic mission from Islamabad. Diplomatic relations would be restored in 2003.[1][2]
In 2019 , in response to India's revocation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, a meeting of the Pakistani National Security Committee decided to downgrade Pakistan's diplomatic relations with India. The High Commissioner to India was recalled and the Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan was expelled.[10][11] Since then, India's High Commission in Islamabad is being headed by a Chargé d'affaires.[12]
