    The Arunachal Pradesh visa issue

    The Arunachal Pradesh visa issue
    Credits:
  • Post the 1962 war, a territorial dispute exists between India and China.

    China lays claim to 90,000 square kilometres in Arunachal Pradesh and says Arunachalis don't need visas to travel to China.

    Since mid-2000s, China started 'issuing' stapled visas to Arunachalis as a 'gesture of goodwill': India doesn't allow citizens with stapled visas to travel to China.

    The contentious issue remains unresolved.

  • Information

    Earlier instances of Chinese visa issues

  • In 2011, a karate team traveling to China was stopped by immigration officials. In Jan 2012, Arunachal weightlifters and in October 2013, two young archers, were stopped from traveling to China as well. In all three instances, they possessed stapled visas.
