Tawang Clash China is not deterring from its antics. Chinese soldiers have intruded many times in the Barahoti and Mana passes of the Chamoli district. Along with the army, the border villages of Uttarakhand are also standing as a shield on the China border.

Team Jagran, Dehradun: Tawang Clash: China is not deterring from its antics. After eastern Ladakh, it has now dared to confront the Indian Army in Tawang in Arunachal. Here in Uttarakhand too, China has been repeatedly doing provocations.

Chinese soldiers have intruded many times in the Barahoti and Mana passes of the Chamoli district. At the same time, Chinese helicopters have also often been seen hovering in the sky in the border area.

Defense experts believe that like in Arunachal and Ladakh, here too the Indian Army is capable of giving a befitting reply to China for its arrogance. It is not that the potential threat assessment in the border areas of Uttarakhand would not have been done.

The border villages of Uttarakhand are also standing as a shield on the China border.

Over the years, a lot of attention has been paid to infrastructure development in border areas. The access of the Indian Army to the China border adjoining Uttarakhand has become easier.

At the same time, in the past, Indian and American forces also conducted a two-week-long exercise in Auli. Although this maneuver is part of the bilateral military strategy, but it is also a message to the dragon. That’s why China also shouted about this. The border villages of Uttarakhand are also standing as a shield on the China border.

The border adjacent to Chamoli’s Niti Valley is sensitive

There is a 345 km long border in Uttarakhand between India and China. Among these, the border adjacent to Chamoli’s Niti Valley is the most sensitive. China has been repeatedly violating the border in Barahoti located here. Lieutenant General Mohan Chandra Bhandari (Seni) says that everyone knows the expansionist policy of China.

Under this policy, he repeatedly does this kind of act on LAC. However, war-like conditions will not prevail. He says that the army and ITBP are fully prepared in Uttarakhand. It is capable of responding to any action of China.

We are ready to deal with any possible threat

Lieutenant General Gambhir Singh Negi (Seni) says that the potential threat must have been assessed in the border areas. He said that it was unfortunate that the marginal areas were neglected for a long time. But now there has been a big change in the thinking of the central leadership regarding the development of border areas.

Much attention is being paid to infrastructural development. The manner in which the joint exercise was conducted in Auli shows that we are prepared to deal with any possible threat. This is a reflection of our strategy.
