New Delhi: Indian troops ‘illegally’ crossed the border in Arunachal’s Tawang and “obstructed” Chinese troops, triggering a fresh stand-off last week, reported news agency AFP. This comes hours after the country claimed that the situation along the border with India is stable.
Indian & Chinese soldiers battle , India since its inception is in habit of claiming the territories of its neighboring countries and even resorting to physical and tacit machinations for its hegemonic designs.
The border disputes with China has been a major bone of contention which is mostly exploited by Indian side to gain political mileage by successive governments and to gain diplomatic support from the West in its China Containment Policy.
After suffering humiliation in Galwan standoff and disproportionate loss at the hands of Chinese troops, India once again attempted to revive the animosity with China by projecting that Chinese troops (PLA) made an incursion into its territory and were effectively repulsed back.
Contrarily, Indian troops have suffered another humiliation at the hand of PLA and many Indian troops have been injured in their standoff with PLA on 9 Dec 2022 in Tawang Sector, Arunachal Pradesh. Historically, Tawang Sector belongs to Tibet and remained part of Chinese mainland since centuries. The area was acceded to India by Tibet in 1914 Shimla Accord with British India.
Indian & Chinese soldiers battle , China has never accepted the agreement and claims entire Arunachal Pradesh as its territory. BJP Regime policy of pricking its neighbours for domestic political gains & support from West/USA is leading to unrest in South Asia and can have ramifications for regional security.
