In a video message which was also shared on his Twitter account, Gandhi referred to the PM's remarks 'No Intrusion' remarks made during an all-party meeting and said that the PM must come clean about the Chinese occupation of Indian territory.
“Our Prime Minister said that no one entered India but there are reports, satellite imagery, even people from Ladakh and retired army generals who are saying that China has grabbed Indian territory at three places,” said Gandhi in the video.
He added, “The Prime Minister will have to tell the truth to the nation. There is nothing to worry about. If you say that the areas have not been occupied and in reality, it is the opposite, then China stands to benefit from it.”

Gandhi also questioned about reports of soldiers fighting at the border without weapons and said that 'we have to fight China together and remove them from our country. You should not fear anything and tell the truth."

“The Prime Minister says China didn’t infiltrate but, the defence ministry and external affairs ministry have repeatedly mentioned about Chinese incursions,” said Sonia Gandhi in a report by ANI. She also said that the Central government cannot shirk their responsibility
“The Chinese army has occupied Indian territory in Ladakh. How will the Modi government take back our land,” she asked.
