China’s G20 Srinagar game plan was hollow. PoK to Taiwan to Tibet, India can turn the table

For once, China seems to be on the losing side of its diplomatic game of supporting Pakistan and isolating India on the Kashmir issue. The recent G20 meeting on the Tourism Working Group held in Srinagar witnessed the participation of over 60 invitees from member countries. Harsh Vardhan Shringla, the chief coordinator for India’s G20 presidency, affirmed that this gathering was ‘the highest representation from foreign delegations for the tourism working group meeting’. “To get such a large turnout of delegates…is an incredible process.
