‘India has not ceded any territory’: Defence Ministry after Rahul’s LAC remarks

India has not "conceded" any territory to China by firming up an agreement on the disengagement process in Pangong Tso in eastern Ladakh, and other outstanding "problems" including in Depsang, Hot Springs ad Gogra will be taken up at the upcoming talks between military commanders of the two countries, the defence ministry said on Friday.

The statement by the ministry came hours after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged that the government has "ceded" Indian territory to China and raised questions over the agreement on the disengagement process.

The ministry also dubbed as "categorically false" the assertion that Indian territory is up to Finger 4 in the Pangong Tso area, adding the permanent posts of both sides in the area are "longstanding and well-established".

"India has not conceded any territory as a result of this agreement.

On the contrary, it has enforced observance and respect for LAC and prevented any unilateral change in the status quo," the ministry said in the strongly-worded statement.

COUNTERSTRIKE! India Responds To China's Arunachal move, To Rename 30 Places in Tibet

India has taken a tit-for-tat step in response to China by approving the renaming of 30 places in Tibet. This move is seen as a strong rebuttal to China's decision to rename places in Arunachal Pradesh. The renaming initiative by the Indian government comes in the wake of heightened tensions between India and China, particularly following the violent clash in the Pangong Tso area in eastern Ladakh on May 5, 2020. Since then, the two nations have engaged in 21 rounds of military talks to address the standoff but are yet to reach a comprehensive resolution. #IndiaChinaTensions #ArunachalPradesh #TibetRenaming #Geopolitics #IndiaStrikesBack #BorderDispute #SinoIndianRelations #Tibet #DiplomaticMove #NamingRights #StrategicResponse #IndiaChinaConflict #RegionalPolitics #TerritorialDispute #IndiaChinaFaceOff ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.155~
