Bihar Officer to Meet Indian Officials

Yash Singh, a merchant navy officer from Muzaffarpur, Bihar, has been detained in China for several months. The Indian government has been trying to secure his release. After a long wait, the Chinese government has granted consular access to Indian officials. This development comes as a relief to Yash Singh's family, who have been seeking his release. The meeting between Indian officials and Yash Singh is scheduled to take place on August 13, 2026, at the detention center in Shanghai.
