India has suspended defence exchanges with China after Beijing refused a visa to an Indian army general from the Kashmir region, media reports said on Friday. Indian army's General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Northern Area Command was denied visa because he was responsible for "disputed" region
A government source said the Indian government would issue a statement later on Friday over the issue.
The Chinese have been provokng India on Kashmir in recent times by refusing to paste visas on the passports of residents of J&K, instead stapling them instead.
India has strongly protestd this practice since the government refuses to recognize stapled visas as valid travel documents.
