NSCN (IM) envoy’s visa revoked

Dimapur, February 9 (MExN): The Indian Embassy in Washington has reportedly withdrawn the Visa for  “honorary ambassador” of the NSCN (IM), Grace Collins.

The embassy reportedly issued Visa to Collins and a number of her friends earlier, only to revoke them later on. 

Collins said in an e-mail received here today that the visas were revoked with no explanations assigned for the same. 

The Indian Embassy called Collins to tell her that her Visa had been revoked, but in the meantime she and the others had purchased non-refundable $4,000 tickets to New Delhi, Collins stated. She also added that the Indian government gave no explanation for its action.  

Asserting “revoking Grace Collins’s visa shows just how frightened the Indian regime is” the email said the move “contradicts the democratic face that India wants to present to the world”.
