Tensions between India and China escalated once again as India formally
lodged a protest with China over the issuance of stapled visas to two
Indian athletes. The Chinese authorities issued these visas to the athletes
from Arunachal Pradesh, a region claimed by China as part of South Tibet.
This move by China is perceived as a provocative act challenging India’s
sovereignty over the territory. In response, the Indian government took a
stern diplomatic stance, conveying its objections and demanding an
explanation from the Chinese authorities. The situation remains tense, and
officials from both nations are closely monitoring the developments to
prevent further escalation of the issue.
