China has finally agreed to withdraw from the two disputed areas amid continuing tensions along the LAC in eastern Ladakh. During the 12th meeting between senior commanders of India and China on Saturday, India strongly objected to China’s presence in three disputed points Hot Spring, Gogra and Depsang. After about 12 hours of talks between the two sides, China finally agreed to withdraw from Hot Spring and Gogra Point. Both these areas are known as Patrol Point 15 and Patrol Point 17-Alpha.
According to army sources, an action plan for the withdrawal of the Chinese army from these two areas has also been prepared in the meeting. However, no consensus has yet been reached on the disputed area of Depsang. The talks began at 10 am on Saturday at the Moldo post in the Chinese area. The meeting was attended by Lt Gen PGK Menon, Commander of 14 Corps and Naveen Srivastava, Additional Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs. The agenda from India’s side in the meeting was clear that China would have to retreat in the face-to-face deployment areas.
Controversy continues on Depsang: India can deploy soldiers in Kailash range if China does not agree
China is not yet ready to back down from Depsang. Here Indian Army patrol is being stopped at Patrol Points 10, 11, 11 Alpha, PP 12 and PP 13. This area is just 30 km from Daulat Beg Oldi and Karakoram Range, India’s highest airstrip. is far. If China remains adamant, the Indian Army can deploy in the Kailash range. Our soldiers have practiced it. China’s Western Highway will not be far from these bases.
12 areas of contention: Samar Lungpa, Depsang, Point 6556, Changlung Nala, Kongka La, Damchok, Trig Heights, Pangong Tso North End, Spangur Gap, Sajun Peak 129m, Dumchele and Chumar.
These 5 new points: Shyok Sula, Recchin La, Rezang La, Km 120 in Galwan, pp 15 and pp 17 alpha.
Hot Spring and Gogra have strategic importance
- To assert its supremacy on the LAC, the Indian Army patrols up to 65 patrol points, which is decided by the China Study Group, the apex policy regulatory body.
- PP 15 and PP 17 were two of the four friction points when China increased troops along the LAC in May 2020. Here’s a face-to-face deployment.
- Both the points are around Chang Chenmo river in Galwan sub-sector. The hot spring is north of Chang Chenmo and east of Gogra Post.
- This area is to the north of the Karakoram Range, to the north of Pangong Tso and to the southeast of the Galwan Valley. This is the valley where 20 soldiers of India were martyred in the bloody skirmish between the soldiers of India and China.
