Indian government says, “U.S. sanctions on Iran have no bearing on India’s Chabahar port project”

External Affairs Minister of the Indian government, S. Jaishankar said, “U.S. sanctions on Iran have no bearing on India’s Chabahar port project.” He said those words in Lok Sabha on Friday. Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) member, Ritesh Pandey asked the minister to give clarification on U.S sanctions on Iran. To which, the minister replied that U.S sanctions are not relevant to India’s Chabahar port project in Iran.

During the Question Hour in Lok Sabha, Ritesh Pandey said that the Iranian government has claimed that the Chabahar port project has been miserably delayed due to sanctions imposed by the US. He further claimed that China is reportedly trying to work on the project by taking advantage of U.S sanctions on Iran. Chabahar port is located on the Gulf of Oman. It is 72 km away from the Gwadar port in Pakistan which has been developed by China.

On which, the minister replied that his information is inaccurate as the sanctions have not affected India’s Chabahar port project. India signed the agreement with Iran in 2016 and took possession of the terminal in 2018. Indian Railways Construction Ltd. (IRCON) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Iranian Rail Ministry to provide all services for the establishment of the Transit and Transport Corridor.

Ritesh Pandey also asked another question to the government about the Taliban taking over the control of the Afghanistan government. He asked if India has signed a new agreement with Iran to continue using the Chabahar port to provide help to central Asian countries and Afghanistan after the Taliban took over the control of the Afghanistan government. The minister replied, “we are not required to have an agreement with the government of Afghanistan as the Chabahar port operations are limited to Iran.”
