New Delhi: In the wake of China agreeing to supply oil to Nepal, India today offered to airlift Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) to the Himalayan country to beat the ongoing blockade on the border.
Reacting guardedly to the agreement between Nepal and China for oil supplies, a 'concerned' India said its impact on the future of Indo-Nepal trade has to be seen and hoped that Kathmandu will "sincerely" address the problems which have caused the current situation and that their bilateral relationship will return to its original status.
External affairs ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup said India was ready to facilitate airlifting of the aviation turbine fuel, as was done in past, as also re-routing of LPG supplies from those crossings which were not affected.
