China eyeballs India: No visa to IAF man from Arunachal

January 06, 2012 17:52

So, China is back at it. A senior IAF officer from Arunachal Pradesh, part of a military delegation, has been denied a visa by China.

In January, last year, China has said that its policy that Arunachal Pradesh is a 'disputed area' remains "unchanged", days after it issued stapled visas to two Indian sportsmen from the state which it claims as "Southern Tibet.

"China's position is consistent and clear about the China-India border issue including the disputed area of Eastern section and the Indian side is aware of it. The position has remained unchanged," the Chinese foreign ministry spokesman's office said in Beijing.
