China denies imposing unofficial ban on commercial ships with Indian crew bound for Chinese ports PTI
Beijing: China has denied imposing an unofficial ban on commercial ships with Indian crew to berth in its ports, saying that Beijing has never imposed such restrictions and the reports were ‘not accurate’.
Asked about the reports of the unofficial ban, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian told a media briefing here that after consulting relevant departments, it has been found that China has never imposed such restrictions.
“The relevant reports by the media are not accurate,” he said.
All India Seafarer & General Workers Union in a recent letter to Minister for Ports, Shipping and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal sought the Indian government’s help in saving the jobs of thousands of Indian seamen, as companies are not recruiting them for the China-bound ships.
