India has modified its visa regulations to expedite the approval of business visas for Chinese professionals, aiming to facilitate the resumption of stalled manufacturing projects and supply chains. This adjustment comes as both nations seek to restore diplomatic ties following tensions stemming from the eastern Ladakh border conflict. The changes allow for short-term business visa processing within three to four weeks, benefiting Chinese nationals significantly. Recent discussions between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping focused on deepening bilateral relations, expanding trade, and jointly addressing border issues, marking a potential thaw in ties and signaling a commitment to regional stability and economic collaboration.
