India and China are close to resolving the 2020 border crisis, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said at a press conference on Tuesday. He said a patrolling arrangement is being worked out by both sides.
The India-China border standoff, which began in April-May 2020 as Beijing amassed troops in eastern Ladakh, also witnessed bloodshed for the first time since 1975 at the Galwan river valley on the intervening night of June 15-16 that resulted in the killing of 20 Indian soldiers by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
Ever since the border standoff began, India and China have had several rounds of negotiations to mitigate the immediate problem both at the military as well as diplomatic levels.
So far, there had been disengagement in five friction points – Galwan valley, northern bank of Pangong Tso, Kailash Range, PP (Patrolling Point) 17A in Gogra and PP15 in Gogra Hot Springs area – resulting in the creation of buffer zones or demilitarised zones.
