India-China border trade via Lipulekh Pass to resume after 6 yrs

Border trade between India and Tibet is set to resume through the Lipulekh pass on June 26, after a six-year halt due to the pandemic. The first batch of 26 Indian traders, including helpers, will enter Chinese territory. A customs office is operational, and preparations are underway for a second batch. Traders anticipate logistical hurdles and will assess goods stored for years before seeking government aid for potential losses.
