New Delhi: China has allowed a significant number of Indian students to return to China after failing to continue their studies for more than two years due to a corona infection. China has given its approval after talks with Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar.
Indian students are pursuing higher education in various countries. Indian students are also studying at higher education institutions in China. More than 23,000 students from India are studying in colleges and universities in China.
Especially those studying medicine and engineering. More than 21,000 students studying in China are MBBS medical students.
Indian students studying abroad made an urgent return home when the corona Pandemic broke out around the world last 2 years ago. Following the outbreak in China, foreign students studying in various cities returned to their home countries in a hurry. Indian students also returned home from China.
Indian students who returned to their home country with less corona infection returned to their home countries little by little. But China did not allow Indian students to return.
Jaisankar talks
Many had their visa applications withheld. China had earlier given permission to students from countries including Pakistan and Sri Lanka. But only Indian students were denied admission.
As a result, half of the Indian students studying in China stopped studying. Following this, Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Kai in China recently.
After 2 years, the Chinese government has allowed Indian students to continue their education in China. Indian officials also confirmed that China has allowed some Indian students to resume their studies after a gap of two years on a need-for-value basis.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said:
We know that more Indian students are studying in China. We also have the idea that they should not stop halfway through the course.
We are placing more emphasis on the concerns and problems of Indian students in returning to China to continue their studies. Students from other countries have reported to India on the procedures and experience of returning to China.
Work on the return of Indian students to China has already begun. We have asked India for a list of those who are interested in returning to China. It will take some time for India to gather their profile.
We are ready to admit some Indian students in the current critical Pandemic. In order for foreign students to return to China to continue their studies, they must consider the international Pandemic environment. The Chinese Embassy in India has been working to facilitate and facilitate the return of Indian students to China.
Thus he said.
On March 25, in New Delhi, Foreign Minister S. The Indian embassy in Beijing said in a statement that an agreement was reached to allow Indian students to return to China following a meeting between Jaishankar and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
China has said it is considering facilitating the return of Indian students on a need-for-value basis. The Indian embassy also said it was compiling a list of students who would like to return to China to facilitate the process.
Students are also requested to provide their information by filling up a form on the website of the Embassy of India in Beijing.
