Line of Actual Control
Tension has increased between India and China on Line of Actual Control (LAC). On Monday
night, a violent clash took place between the Indian soldier and the Chinese
soldier on the Galwan valley. In this skirmish, an Indian Army officer and two
soldiers have been martyred.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi alleged that Indian
soldiers crossed the border twice and illegally entered into the jurisdiction
of China and attacked Chinese troops when stopped. During this, there was a
clash between the soldiers of both sides. The Chinese Foreign Minister said
that this would have a direct impact on the ongoing negotiations to reduce
tensions.
Nonetheless, the Galwan River in eastern Ladakh is one of the sectors that have
been in the news recently due to the deadlock between the forces of India and
China. According to recent media reports, although the two forces are in their
respective areas on line-of-actuarial control (LAC), the situation has not
returned to normal. Most importantly, tensions have arisen in the region for
the first time since 1962, and also when the LAC has been clearly defined and
accepted by both rival sides.
