Foreign Ministry spokesman Ravish Kumar said on Thursday that - due to coronavirus, all the e-visas issued earlier to all citizens of China will also be invalid now. Normal visas that have been issued are also not valid for long. Actually, those who want to come to India for very important work, can contact our embassy or the nearest consulate for issuing visas. This will not affect diplomatic visas. Ravish Kumar has clearly stated that the new visa restrictions will only apply to China's mainland (Mainland China). In this, India's e-visa is still available for some categories. Diplomats do not fall into that category. Their visa application is sent through the embassy. The same, the latest decision will not affect the diplomatic process.
