India Hardens stance on China, calls off signing Visa deal - NewsX
  • 5 years ago
India's liberalised visa agreement with China, which was to be signed during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Beijing next week, has been struck off by New Delhi at the last minute as a mark of protest against China issuing stapled visas to two Indian archers from Arunachal Pradesh.

The decision to pull back on the agreement, sources said, was taken at the highest levels with the PMO taking a call that India could not be seen liberalising visa rules when China was going ahead and underlining what it claims as the "disputed status" of Arunachal Pradesh weeks before the PM's visit.
