Know Devyani Khobragade who was humiliated by New York police

New Delhi: Devyani Khobragade, India's deputy consul general in New York, is the daughter of a retired IAS officer of Maharashtra cadre Uttam Khobragade.  Devyani Khobragade  was arrested by New York police on visa fraud



This led to Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, Congress Party Vice-President Rahul Gandhi and opposition Bharatiya Janata Party prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi all refusing to meet with a visiting U.S. congressional delegation.

India also recalled all consulate personnel ID cards and made it clear that the law of strict reciprocity is in place.  

So if the US says that Devyani has limited immunity, a similar procedure will be applicable for US diplomats stationed in India.
