The dispute between two thickly populated countries, India-China, is increasing by every passing day. Indian Army’s 20 officers have been killed by the Chinese Army at Ladakh which caused the high pressure on both sides of the border.
India-China tensions have risen in Ladakh, with India acknowledging that 20 Indian soldiers have been killed, but unconfirmed reports say more than 40 Indian soldiers killed, more than a dozen are missing, some detained by the Chinese military, including a major.
It may be recalled that the border clash between China and India, which started on May 5 in Ladakh’s Gulwan Valley and then in the Nikola area of Northeastern Sikkim, was followed by bitterness between India and China three days later. The Indian Army entered the area and the Chinese PLA arrested them, who were later released.
China has released 10 Indian soldiers, including a lieutenant colonel and two majors.
