The Indian Army released a video on the disengagement process that began at Pangong Tso in eastern Ladakh on Wednesday.
The video was released as Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh confirmed in Parliament that a ‘complete disengagement’ at the Pangong Tso (lake) in eastern Ladakh had been agreed upon between India and China.
Official sources told mediapersons withdrawal of tanks and other armoured elements from certain friction points is nearing completion while pulling back of troops from the North bank areas is being undertaken.
Sources said under the first phase of disengagement, the tanks of India are being moved back towards Nyoma and adjoining areas while the Chinese are taking them back beyond Sirijap and Moldo garrison.
“The movement related to disengagement of tanks and infantry combat vehicles from forward positions to rear locations started last evening itself. The disengagement from the two banks of the Pangong lake is aimed to be completed within seven days,” a source told ANI.
