It was unclear how he died right away.

Arya, a career diplomat from the 2008 batch of the Indian Foreign Service, had worked in the Ministry of External Affairs in Delhi, as well as the Permanent Delegation of India to UNESCO in Paris and the Indian Embassies in Kabul and Moscow, when he was in his mid-30s.

He was born and reared in Delhi, and attended Delhi University and JNU to study Economics before joining the Indian Foreign Service in 2008.

"We received with great astonishment and shock the news of the death of the Ambassador of the Republic of India to the State of Palestine, Mukul Arya, and we express profound regret, loss, and pain at his demise," the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants stated in a statement.

It stated that they were in contact with the Indian Foreign Ministry to finalise plans for sending the ambassador's mortal remains to his homeland.

President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh of Palestine instructed all security, police, and public officials, as well as the Ministry of Health and Forensic Medicine, to finish the formalities as soon as possible.

The officials were told to go to the Indian ambassador's residence in Ramallah right away. The statement noted that all parties are completely prepared to do what is necessary of them in such tough and emergency circumstances to learn more about the death.

"That is frightening," tweeted Amar Sinha, a former Indian ambassador to Afghanistan. He was in Kabul at the same time as me. My heartfelt condolences to his family. Om Shanti," says the speaker.
