China has opened its market for import of Indian mangoes including the ‘alphanso’ variety. Following a pest risk analysis, China has agreed to open its market for Indian grapes and bitter gourds. As a part of this process, the Chinese concerns relating to other fruits and vegetables are also being addressed to enable their export.

This was stated by Shri E.V.K.S. Elangovan, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry, in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today.
