It may be possible our "seriousness" is being done for negotiations instead.
What negotiations are needed now? Chinese are on that side of lac and we are on this side of lac.
Over 90% favour ban on Chinese apps: Mood of the Nation survey
The MOTN survey showed over 90 per cent have supported India's decision to ban Chinese origin apps to counter Chinese aggression. The survey had received 12,021 responses.
Indians feel govt gave a befitting reply to China over LAC dispute, finds MOTN poll
Has the Narendra Modi government been successful in handling the situation with China? The India Today-Karvy Insights Mood of the Nation (MOTN) survey reveals that a majority of the people who took part in the poll feel that India gave a deft answer to China.
As I suspected, I am in minority when it comes to opinion of handling of Chinese and defence matters. A good portion of India is in support of India's (mis?)-handling of border intrusion.

even @Falcon had stated that negotiations and diplomacy must go on even during actual war to find a post conflict solution. In the war between Alexander and Porus, Alexander had sent six emissaries to Porus to stop the war within the battlefield.
As much as I know and I also agree that time for India to call reserve and escalate was in June. Now that China's forces have been reinforced and deeply entrenched.
That's different. I'm referring to the moves being made in order to help with pre-war negotiations.
But, there is no news of reserves being called up.. As war on LAC will drag on for some time.. Any Indian offensive must begin well before the mountain passes close with snow fall, as this would render Indian movements difficult..
I think exactly the same. There will be major outcome of the coming war. With Japan, S Korea, Taiwan, Australia and the US inflicting china from its East and South, India will manage China's SW and W as well as Pakistan. Both Terrorist gangster territories will split into several pieces with the rising of internal revolt as well.
It could be a gamble thinking Winter might limit the length of any potential campaign
Don't get too excited. It all depends on the U.S election if Biden comes to power we could be stranded alone to fight along with maybe the Japanese. A lot of wierd predictions are coming.
The escalation may actually start around October if that happens it's good for us. But if it gets delayed to November we might get screwed...
We shouldn't send mixed messages to the Chinese.
If the government is serious about getting the occupied area vacated, pressure should be unambiguous.
No peace talk or weak talk on tv by politicians or retired senior people.
reducing Chinese embassy strength.
Restricting visas to Chinese.
Making noise on hk and tibet.
Targeting xi personally, Chinese are very image conscious.
Putting sanctions on their crown jewels like their mobile industry and software like pubg.
Cancelling leave of all defence personnel.
Mobilizing our reserves.
And what i have said before, just withdrawing to previous positions is kicking the ball into the future, does not change Chinese behavior.
We have lost a CO and 20 men , some blood should be shed demonstrably on the Chinese side.
A few sniper pick ups of their officers is a bare minimum. Its very effective low intensity pressure. Does not escalate and puts the ball in their court

My disdain is not for the present situation, war fighting ability etc etc. My disdain is for the simple lack of will -- majorly among the Holy Leadership Trinity and to a (much?) lesser extent among the Indians at large. Lack of will to defend what is ours. Lack of will to prepare to defend what is ours. This is uniquely Indian and perhaps is somewhat new too. Most likely a product of post Indra Gandhi to present times. And I refuse to believe it has anything to do with poverty. Indians are poor but Indian government is fairly rich. Indian government always acts like a spoilt nouveau-riche middle class person's son.
On a lighter note my thoughts are best expressed by this meme and the actual gentleman in the picture.

In one of the previous posts @Falcon said contrary opinion that India is not mobilising and not calling reserves.
TRITIUM, a key ingredient for hydrogen bombs and boosted fission bombs....☺
We are the largest producer of it. We get it as a by-product while making Heavy Water which was once denied to us, now we're the largest producer of heavy water too and export it without even entry into NSG. NSG, FMCT my foot...,
