According to The Economic Times, changes to India’s visa scheme for Chinese nationals has resulted in a substantial decrease in the number of Chinese workers—from 650 to 100—at a power plant project in Mundra. Because of visa issues, the project, which is owned and operated by a consortium of Chinese businesses and is supervised by Chinese contractors, has replaced Chinese workers with Indian workers. Similar staffing changes have occurred at power projects in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
