The Taiwan government has made several friendship gestures towards India in the recent past amid growing tensions with China. Earlier this month Taiwan's foreign minister Joseph Wu had hit out at the Chinese mission after it asked the Indian media to follow "One-China" policy.

A tweet by Taiwanese foreign ministry, said, "India is the largest democracy on Earth with a vibrant press & freedom-loving people. But it looks like Communist China hoping to march into the subcontinent by imposing censorship."

"Taiwan's Indian friends will have one reply: GET LOST! JW", it said. Earlier in the month, Taiwan had celebrated its National Day as Chinese jets entered its air space during the week leading to heightened tensions between the two countries.
