Pat down row: US gives no assurances

The pat down row between India and the United States seems to be growing. After US' ignorance to India's concern on insult to Indian ambassador to United Nations, Hardeep Puri and Indian ambassador to the US, Meera Shankar, India has taken a tough stand. Government sources have said that India is likely to reconsider privileges given to the US diplomats here in India.
This comes after the US state department said that pat down was a part of standard procedure and that no one can be exempted. US chose to ignore India's concerns on insult to Hardeep Puri and Meera Shankar.
The US state department while calling the incident as unfortunate, has refused to promise that they won't happen again.
