Gaumukh is origin of Ganga and it's in Tapovan biosphere near Neelkanth Parvat, very close to China border an area of Chinese incursions as well, there too Chinese have got disputed territory with India, where as Mansarovar is further North east near Nepal. Looser
Balakot was a message to China as well. In the vicinity was CPEC project site
They might be brining who knows, it's not being shared to civilians. But I doubt there will be any conflict. Still Chinese are master of deception. They are in Himalayas for water only. And you snatch that opportunity from them, they will go bonkers.
Correction. It's the Indus instead of the Ganga. Thanks for pointing it out . The other points remain.Gaumukh is origin of Ganga and it's in Tapovan biosphere near Neelkanth Parvat, very close to China border an area of Chinese incursions as well, there too Chinese have got disputed territory with India, where as Mansarovar is further North east near Nepal, its only a source of one small tributary of Ganga.

I don't disagree. Most sane posters here consider you insane & vice versa.
Why do I feel that an agreement is imminent, and the chinese will withdraw.. That the chinese were allowed to send in a major general is the only consolation, they were allowed by Modi.. ( Just an optimistic hunch..

May I ask, where do you think rivers get most of their water from? Is it from glacial lakes? Or elsewhere?After reading the thread and understanding the ideology of Indians here, most of them don't know why they are protecting Himalayas, what is the importance of lakes which they lack to understand, and why China took on Tibet. Most of them here don't even know it. I have a scenario in Mind.
Scenario:
China once again fights with India for the lakes and water bodies inside Indian territory, because Indians don't find them valuable and depend on global warming to melt them and flow into India.
India gets what it captured China gets what China captured.
What India captures:
Over 10000sqkm inside China, barren desert and rough terrain. Which China intentionally wanted India to capture it as it was no use for them and less strategic important. So China diverted India to take on that territory.
What China captures:
over 10000sqkm Lakes, river sources , glaciers and valleys to build dams and regulate water supply, settles it's people around those lush valleys and start economic activity.
Statement: Leaders in India show victory sign by telling people of India that India military captured 1000+sqkm inside China. Indian people get happy and day to day life goes on. China where as laughs on stupidity of Indians.
China does exactly, what India did to Pakistan in 1965, by allowing Pakistan to get into those barren Indian territory with low strategic and economic use, where as captures more strategic fertile plains of Punjab controlling water canals and economic zones.
This is most likely to happen.

Satellite images don't show them. I will love to be proven wrong though.
You do know how many air bases India operates near Ladakh, don't you?
They are inducting large destroyers and aircraft carriers on their eastern and patroling and intercepting vessels in south china sea and near Taiwan too. That is also unprecedented. And that has been ongoing for past 10 years now. Yet no war.
I believe our discussion was not focussed on the accuracy in the reporting of present tactical position. They have upped the ante on LAC is a fact. That is why we have this thread and our present discussion. It is immaterial that where they are camping.
Again a digression. Question is not weather we could counter but their intent of fighting. Their move of increasing the number of forward deployed jet is a clear indication of it.
Expansion plan of PLAN was well known to all the concerned parties. Furthermore all those deployments were on Chinese shores. You don't expect them to park their destroyers on American ports, do you?? All of this although was concerning on a strategic point of view it didn't posed an immediate threat of war.
