Exclusive: China funded housing project suspended following India's objections

29 Aug 2018

By Easwaran Rutnam   A Chinese funded housing project in the North and East has been suspended following objections raised by India. Sources at the Ministry of Resettlement, Rehabilitation, Northern Development and Hindu Religious Affairs told The Morning that India had raised strong objections to the project by China. The Government had earlier decided to go ahead with the project but following strong concerns and objections raised by India the project was suspended. "We are now discussing what to do next as India was not happy with the project by China going ahead," sources said. The Chinese housing project was to see some 7000 locals in the North and East receiving employment to construct the houses, under the agreement. China Railway Beijing Engineering Group Co. Ltd had been awarded the contract to build 40,00 houses for the war affected families. The Chinese company has agreed to complete the project in two years and the Government earlier felt that it will help meet the urgent requirement for housing for the families. India is also involved in providing houses for the war affected families in the North and East.
