The first phase of disengagement between Indian and Chinese troops is completed and the next round of senior military commander talks are scheduled to be held on Saturday.
This will be the tenth round of talks between both nations after the last years’ LAC issue. The tenth round of talks was scheduled to be held within 48 hours of the completion of the first phase of disengagement and as decided it will be held tomorrow at 10 AM.
The four-step disengagement of the first phase included pulling back armour, artillery, infantry followed by heavy equipments.
China too confirmed for the first time that five Chinese military officers and soldiers were killed in the Galwan Valley in the blood clash with the Indian Army last year in June 2020.
