In a major development, fresh clashes broke out between Indian and Chinese troops at Pangong near the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh on the intervening night of August 29-30.
China’s violation of the consensus arrived during talks and plans to change the status quo at the LAC were strongly retaliated by the Indian forces, a statement from the Indian Army said.
“On the night of 29/30 August 2020, PLA troops violated the previous consensus arrived at during military and diplomatic engagements during the ongoing standoff in Eastern Ladakh and carried out provocative military movements to change the status quo,” Indian Army said in a statement.
