Ministry of Finance Issues FEMA Notification on Prior Govt Clearance for Investment from land Bordering
Countries including China
[Not clear whether Afghanistan is included in Hit List. The
papers are saying Afghanistan is included, notification is mysteriously
silent on this.
There is a narrow strip of 105 km in POK in Gilgit Baltistan which borders Afghanistan. The Afghanis
do not recognise this as it is based on the British
delineated Durand line.
Measure is not good for India. Other investors like
Facebook will raise their price of investment since there is less
competition. Editor]
