Indian media reports that three Indian athletes from the Indian -Indian -Indian disputed region are unable to download the participation certificate and fail to go to Hangzhou to participate in the Asian Games with the team.
The Hindustan Times reports that the three female martial arts athletes are from Arunachal Pradesh (known as southern Tibet).The three of them have previously received the approval of the Hangzhou Asian Organizing Committee to participate in the Asian Games, but because they cannot download the participation certificate equivalent to the Chinese visa, they have not been able to board the plane with the remaining 10 teammates and coaches on Wednesday (September 20) to ChinaEssence
These three athletes were previously treated by China.When they applied to participate in the World University Games held in Chengdu in July this year, Chinese officials issued a special "other paper visa" different from teammates.This type of visa will not leave a record of recognition when entering China, that is, it means that China does not agree with India's sovereignty over Arunechal.
This move caused strong opposition to India at the time. The Indian martial arts team urgently withdrew from the competition to protest, while the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs rebuked that it was "unacceptable."
At present, the organizers of the Hangzhou Asian Games, the Indian Olympic Association and the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs have not responded to the matter.Indian media quoted people familiar with the matter that the situation of the Asian Games was complicated than the last time, and said that it was expected to respond on Saturday (September 23).
Another person familiar with the matter revealed that the three athletes who were blocked still hoped to seek solutions before the start of the martial arts competition on September 24 to complete the competition.It is reported that they have sought help with the Indian Cabinet Minister Kiren Rijiju and asked him to investigate the matter.
A well -known martial arts coach told the Indian media that if they could not participate, they would lose their lifetime opportunities for these three athletes."They have requested Mr. Riji Zhu. India should propose a strong protest. If they are not allowed to travel, they can resist the opening ceremony if necessary to protest."
Hope, both China and India claim that they have sovereignty over this area.New Delhi insisted that the state in the past and the future will always be "an inseparable part of India", and strongly protested that China has classified this area into Chinese territory in the new version of the newly released before; in March of this year, China did not attend India.The G20 meeting hosted by Arunecchal to protest.
