Beijing, June 26: Chi on Monday refused to tell why it had stopped a group of Indian pilgrims from travelling to Kailash Mansarovar, saying the foreign ministries of both countries are in touch over the issue. “According to my information, the foreign ministries of the two countries are maintaining communication on the issue,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang said when asked about the reason for the move. Last week, the first batch of 47 Indian pilgrims was stopped by Chinese authorities at the intertiol border.
