May be an indicative that India is drawing red lines....
Speaking in the Rajya Sabha, Swaraj said, “We will go out of the way to get justice for Jadhav, he is a son of India.”
She went on to say that charges against Jadhav are "concocted" and "farcical". “There is no evidence of wrongdoing by him,” she said.

Sushma Swaraj warns Pak: Hang Jadhav, face consequences
NEW DELHI: India issued a stern warning to Pakistan that it risks dire consequences if it carried out the "farcical" death sentence imposed by a military court on Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav who it said was imprisoned on concocted charges of spying.
"I would caution the Pakistan government to consider the consequences for our bilateral relationship if they proceed on this matter," external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj said in Parliament, even as MPs across political lines in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha condemned Pakistan for the kangaroo court justice meted out to Jadhav.
Asserting that India will leave no stone unturned in ensuring that Jadhav got justice, Swaraj said the former Navy officer was engaged in legitimate business in Iranwhen he was "abducted and taken" to Pakistan. Swaraj said there was no evidence of any wrongdoing by him.
"If anything, he is the victim of a plan that seeks to cast aspersions on India to deflect international attention from Pakistan's well-known record of sponsoring and supporting terrorism," she said.
Under these circumstances, India will have no choice but to regard the sentence, if carried out, as an act of premediated murder.
"A senior Pakistani leader (Sartaj Aziz) has himself expressed doubts about the adequacy of evidence in this case," she said.
The process adopted by the Pakistani military court "tells us a lot about the farcical nature of the alleged proceedings which have led to indefensible verdict against an innocent kidnapped Indian", she added.
