| China increases number of troops, weaponry along LAC in Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Uttarakhand: Report | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, June 25: Even as New Delhi and Beijing are engaged in military and diplomatic talks to ease the tensions at Line of Actual Control, China has significantly ramped up its military presence in Pangong Tso, Galwan Valley and several points in eastern Ladakh, a report has said. The Indian Army and Chinese troops are engaged in a standoff in Pangong Tso, Galwan Valley, Demchok and Daulat Beg Oldie in eastern Ladakh. The report of an increase in the military build-up by China along the Line of Actual Control came as India and China held diplomatic-level talks on Wednesday to defuse the tensions, which have been soaring high after the deadly clashes at Galwan Valley on June 15. Indian Army lost 20 soldiers after Chinese People’s Liberation Army troops carried out a ‘premeditated’ attack on the Armymen at the Galwan in eastern Ladakh. A significant number of Chinese troops have been deployed in Pangong Tso, Galwan Valley and friction points in eastern Ladakh. Even after India’s stiff resistance, ‘Chinese troops have again put up some structure around patrolling point 14 in the area’. In an alarming situation, the news agency reported that PLA has increased its troops and weaponry along the Line of Actual Control in Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Uttarakhand. To ease the tension along the Line of Actual Control in the eastern Ladakh region after the armies of the two countries clashed on June 15, talks were held between Joint Secretary (East Asia) in the Ministry of External Affairs Naveen Srivastava and Director General in the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Wu Jianghao on Wednesday.
“In this regard, it was emphasised that both sides should strictly respect and observe the line of actual control,” the Ministry of External Affairs said.
Interestingly, while reports are emerging that Beijing continues to enhance troop deployment in the friction areas, the Chinese foreign ministry said the two countries held “candid and in-depth” talks.
“The two sides had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on the recent china-India border situation and expressed to earnestly implement the important consensus reached by the foreign ministers of the two countries during their phone call on June 17,” a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
