Oca coordination commission

Hangzhou Asian Games Organising Committee:  As the Indian government reacted strongly to China issuing stapled visas instead of proper accreditations to three wushu players from Arunachal Pradesh, a senior Olympic official from China defended his country saying it has the right to give different visas to different people.

Jizhong Wei, a member of the OCA Coordination Commission and Honorary Life Vice-President of the Olympic Council of Asia claimed that the three wushu players were not denied visas but given different types of visas, which they refused to take.

"The players were not denied a visa, they were given a different kind of visa which they refused to take because of which they could not fly out to China. The Chinese government has the right to give different visas to different people," he claimed during a press conference at the Main Media Centre here on Friday.
