After almost two years, the first batch of Pakistani students arrived in China. Remember that the Pakistani students were stuck in Pakistan due to covid -19.

After undergoing a 14-day quarantine, they will go to their respective universities in different cities.

After multiple meetings with Pakistani authorities, China agreed to allow 250 Pakistani students to return. However, the report said there are still more than 7,000 Pakistani students who intend to return to China to pursue their studies.

Pakistani Students and some other countries' students have arrived in China in the form of batches. But Beijing has not yet announced plans to allow the return of Indian students.

Since then, like most foreign students, they have been stuck back home due to China's visa and flight bans.

In April, after repeated representations from India, China agreed to permit the return of "some" stranded Indian students and asked the Indian Embassy in Beijing to collect the details of those seeking to return.

As per China's official reports, over 23,000 Indian students are studying in Chinese colleges.

Over 12,000 Indian students have expressed their wish to return and their details have been forwarded to the Chinese government for processing.

However, plans may have been delayed according to the source due to the recent COVID-19 spike.
Last week, China announced plans to provide visas to Indian professionals and their families working in various Chinese cities who are stuck back home for over two years due to Beijing's COVID-19 visa bans.

The Chinese Embassy in India updated its COVID-19 visa policy after over two years to accept visa applications of foreign nationals and their accompanying family members wanting to go to China for the resumption of work in all fields.

This week, it was further updated with COVID-19 protocols to be followed by visa holders to travel to China.

While opening visa services to Indians, China is yet to announce plans to open flight facilities between the two countries. Currently, only diplomats between the two countries travel through expensive third-country flight routes.

However, China's visa announcement has created hope that flight services too may be resumed between the two countries soon.
 


Indian students continuously record their protests on Twitter with the hashtag #takeUsBack to China.
