In a historic step, India and China are resuming border trade through the old Silk Route at Nathu La from Saturday. Border trade between India and China through the historic Nathu La Pass in East Sikkim is resuming after a gap of six years since the COVID-19 pandemic. The resumption marks a positive sign in bilateral engagement between India and China.
Border trade through Nathu La had first started on July 6, 2006, and was suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic. Trade will remain open for six months, from May to November, as per mutually agreed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Trading will take place from Monday to Thursday, with both countries retaining the existing list of 36 approved commodities.
