Army of China and India started withdrawing from Gogra-Hotsprings: Armies of both countries announced an agreement in military talks
The army of India and China has made a big announcement in the direction of reducing tension on the eastern Ladakh border. On Thursday, the armies of both countries said that troops have started withdrawing from Petrol Point-15 in the Gogra-Hotsprings area in eastern Ladakh. This decision has been taken after the consensus was reached in the 16th round of the India-China Corps Commander level meeting.
This is a good step for peace on the border. This was agreed upon in the high-level military talks between the armies of both countries on 17 July. The announcement comes a week after the Shanghai Cooperation Organization's annual summit in Uzbekistan. It will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
On this day there was pressure on our ground troops in Galvan, and there was pressure on China too. The Chinese army was sitting on that site, so the Indian army asked them to return. Although they agreed, the dispute started with Chinese action. China set up two tents, which were like observation posts. Chinese soldiers argued that if we go back then we will not be able to keep an eye on our movements.
The Indian Army protested against this and the skirmish started. Chinese soldiers were armed with weapons and the Indian Army had reached there under old practice. In this, 20 Indian soldiers were martyred. More than 40 Chinese soldiers were killed. However, China did not accept it. After this clash, talks took place between the two sides around 30 June and China withdrew one kilometre from there. India was back on its post.
