China does it again: Arunachal athletes issued stapled visas; GOI protests, Sports Min cancels visit

Itanagar, Sep 22 (UNI) The Government of India on Friday strongly protested China’s decision to issue invalid visas to some of its athletes for the Asian Games, a day before the start of the competition in the Chinese city of Hangzhou.
Three athletes from Arunachal Pradesh, competing as Wushu fighters, were issued stapled visas instead of stamped ones, the Foreign Ministry said on Friday. India does not accept stapled visas as valid.
The three female Wushu players from Arunachal Pradesh – Nyeman Wangsu, Onilu Tega and Mepung Lamgu – have been denied accreditation, which also works as visa, for the Asian Games.
