Galwan valley: The report comes a day after Chinese troops in a state media tweet showed them with their flag at Galwan valley
The Indian Army hoisted the national flag in eastern Ladakh's Galwan valley during the New Year, news agency ANI reported quoting unnamed defence sources. The report comes a day after Chinese troops in a state media tweet showed them with their flag at Galwan valley.
Army sources have told NDTV that the video from the official Chinese media Twitter handle does not violate the demilitarised zone between the two countries in the area.
After the violent faceoff in Galwan valley in June 2020, several rounds of military and diplomatic talks have been held but largely they have ended in a stalemate.
Disengagement at some border points did take place but by and large, there is an impasse on complete disengagement. Disengagement at Depsang and Hot Springs remains a key sticky point. There is still a huge build-up of forces on each side of eastern Ladakh even during the harsh winter.
