India’s Ministry of External Affairs has rejected lawsuits filed in a US court by Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, head of the proscribed organisation Sikhs for Justice, describing them as “frivolous” and the allegations against Indian officials as “fabricated and malicious.” Speaking at a media briefing in New Delhi, MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said judicial documents intended for service in India must be routed through the country’s designated central authority, the Ministry of Law and Justice. His remarks came in response to a question about reports that the US State Department had served summonses on the Indian government in connection with a civil lawsuit filed by Pannun.
