India and China resumed direct flights on Sunday after a five-year suspension, a move important both for trade and a symbolic step as Asia’s giants cautiously rebuild relations.
The neighbours – the world’s two most populous nations – remain strategic rivals competing for regional influence but ties have eased gradually since a deadly Himalayan border clash in 2020.
India’s government said the resumption of flights will boost “people-to-people contact” and aid the “gradual normalisation of bilateral exchanges”.
