Now that the captives have been exchanged, PLA and China will find voice. Let us wait and see what happens after 21st?There are some contentious claims in the embassy statement, about India agreeing to demolition some structures in Galwan. Any response from MEA?
do you know what happens if you occupy such isolated points on hill tops? And do IA have someother route to these places or can IA leave them sitting there and yet go behind them to F8?Nothing will go past finger 4. It is not sure if we could even go near finger 4 at this point. Chinese dug Kms of trenches along finger 4,5 regions and built fortified positions up in the mountain slope.
Unless they pull back, or dislodge them with military means, patrolling beyond finger 4 is not possible.
Nothing released officially as of now by MEA.There are some contentious claims in the embassy statement, about India agreeing to demolition some structures in Galwan. Any response from MEA?
This was never about that barren stretch of land. Its about a power move. Amit Shah announced in parliament that India would reclaim not just PoK but Aksai Chin as well.
The chinks who have sunk $60 Billion plus in CPEC were not going to their Arabian Sea warm water port to be snatched away from them. The winner today is Pakistan, whose masters have bought it some breathing time.

These are the last ppl on earth u shud believe, they are more interested in taking benefit out of conflict. If china gives a trade concession they will throw us under the bus.
these are all minor things, I dont think it hardly matters. Its the larger geopolitical strategic interests of china that is in play. They have done the same in the past and will continue to do so. Indians have to start thinking with whole picture in mind instead of bits & pieces. If the incident was localized then why would they come so prepared along the entire LOC.View attachment 16510
For last many years, we used to patrols through the river side and Chinese block us when we reach finger 5. However, this year, we went upwards through the mountain and reached untill finger 8. Some say that this is what provoked the chinese oficer in charge to start this buildup now. However, that will be tough to use the uphill now since PLA also dug post in the hill sides to block that path.
To put into context something I wrote earlier ...........
Understand it in the context of what I wrote in my previous post . Don't look at it standalone.
I don't really what to discuss such things but let me make a exception
Reasons why India must not be drawn to a large scale war without adequate preparations.
Localised action in a tic for tat situation is ok and I fully support it provided we yield the power to contain it in the first place.
But for a full scale war we have to
1. Not limit ourselves to reclaiming lost territories in Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh only
2. Retake Tibet completely
Why ?
Because if we reclaim Ladakh and AP only , in the future we will still be exposed to Chinese counter attacks at the time and place of their choice . The Chinese will definitely attempt revenge. Our economy will get tied down trying to defend everytime . Negative psychology effect will mount on our population over a period of time .
However if we retake Tibet then we will deny the Chinese the geographical proximity to undertake counter attacks in future as part of any possible retaliation.
Tibet will then become the buffer zone , with combined Indian and Tibetan forces who will hold the Chinese at risk in Chinese mainland itself . Their economy will at direct risk plus the psychological pressure will be immense on their leaders and population.
This way our population centers will not be at risk by Chinese artillery etc , currently our population close to border is at risk while Chinese population centers are not at risk.
If we retake Tibet then the situation becomes opposite , the Chinese population comes under threat from Indian forces . While our own population becomes safe.
Any plan to attack China must incorporate liberation of Tibet , otherwise India will be always vulnerable to Chinese counter actions .
And importantly we must do it in a single war only , cannot risk multiple wars with China because otherwise we will get bogged down progressively with each counter move by china .
So best we prepare and arm ourselves for a full scale war to retake Tibet completely and deny the Chinese geographical proximity so that they cannot threaten India ever again.
If any body has read Chanakya's mandala theory , he or she will agree with me , heck even chanakya would agree with me .
Irony is Indian planners don't follow Arthashastra , if they had we would never been in such situations. Solution to almost every problem has been described by chanakya , only need is to conform them to prevailing situations and importantly develop the will power to implement them .
Again long story short
India must plan to recapture lost territories and Tibet and it must do so in a single war effort .
we cant right now but that should be our end goal.LAC to control nahi ho raha lekin pura Tibet liberarte jarur karenge.
I think falcon's posts have made the situation and our handling of it pretty clear so I agree with saho
