In US also average salary of diplomat started $30,000 per year, and the pay structure is similar to that in other government organizations. Senior foreign service officials can make over $100,000 per year.Being a foreign service officer is not for everyone. When some US diplomat engaged to be married, he resigned from the foreign service. The life of an officer can be difficult for families. "My fiancée is an attorney and can't practice overseas, average diplomat have to move every three to four years, it would be an incredible burden, if your lifestyle is flexible, and if you want to travel the world, experience new cultures, and serve your country, consider a career in the foreign service.
Devyani made her maid to work below the U.S Stipulated wages??? and i think she has filed all false cases against her family she should be given stringent punishment.
After Pakistan, China, now cats,mice and rats have started challenging MMS government.US is arresting our consular official based on the statements of rats and mice. All these require Entebbe-type of treatment only like Israelites.
Govt of India should take neutral stand on this issue as both the parties are Indians. Media is taking the side devyani which is not acceptable, they are showing only one of the story.

Does USA ever take neutral stand when their or their citizen's interest matters? Why should Indian govt be neutral?

You are missing the point. Here BOTH are indian citizen, the diplomat and the maid. Then why should govt favour diplomat?
...from crooked Indian diplomats and politicians it is clear she has been wining and dining them well during their visits to the US ..probably more services also.
She should be sacked from her post and prosecuted quickly.
Why the maids family was hounded in India also needs investigation
At the outset, it seems that Indian Diplomat used her status unjustifiably to first deny proper wages to her maid, then instituting a false case upon her in India and now crying wolf in USA where laws are equal for all. Govt. Of India by retaliating is further vitiating the relationships with US. They should had transferred the lady diplomat as soon as the case came to the notice.
