Wagah (Amritsar): Two days after his expulsion, Indian Charge d' Affaires in Pakistan Sudhir Vyas on February 10 crossed over to India through Wagah border saying responsibility for the safety and security of Indian High Commission officials there lay on Islamabad.

Four other expelled Indian High Commission staffers, including a diplomat, Rahul Rasgotra, and a servant, also crossed over to the Indian side this afternoon.

Soon after crossing the border, Vyas told reporters, "Indian High Commission employees are not living in any serious danger, but we have to be vigilant and responsibility for this lies with Pakistan."

Besides Vyas and Rasgotra, others who arrived in Amritsar were M R Balu, Ranbir Singh and S R Anand.

A servant Vinod Kumar also crossed the border with them.
