India-China patrol agreement, Army chief says – will take time to believe: Border patrol is the means, next step will come after this; China said – we will solve the dispute together

After an agreement between India and China on patrolling of the LAC, China's foreign ministry on Tuesday said that we will resolve our border dispute together. Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi on Tuesday termed this agreement as a good step. He said that first of all both the countries have to rebuild trust. This requires soldiers to see and talk to each other. Patrolling will provide the right environment for this.

India and China had agreed to patrol on October 21 a day earlier. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that an agreement has been reached between India and China regarding the border patrol system. This will bring back the status quo before May 2020 (Galwan confrontation).

Army Chief said- Buffer zone management, de-escalation is necessary

After the agreement between India and China, Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi said, “We are in the process of regaining trust. It will take time. Army withdrawal and buffer zone management are also important for this. How can we build trust? When we listen to each other.” We can and can satisfy each other. We will be able to express confidence that we will go into the buffer zones that have been created.

Patrolling will make this process easier for you. Both sides will get a chance to explain each other. Once trust is established, the next step will be taken.”

China and India have agreed to restore the status quo in April 2020 along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh. This means that now the Chinese army will withdraw from the areas where they have encroached.

Indian External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikram Misri said on Monday that a proposal has been prepared to resolve issues arising after 2020 with border patrols between India and China. Both the countries will take steps in this regard.

In April 2020, China encroached on 6 areas of Eastern Ladakh after a military exercise. By 2022, the Chinese army has already withdrawn from 4 areas. The Indian Army was not allowed to patrol in Daulat Beg Oldi and Demchok.

In 2020, there was a clash between Chinese and Indian armies in Galwan

The Army Chief said – we have to fight as well as cooperate

In April 2020, the Chinese army encroached on at least 6 areas in eastern Ladakh following a military exercise. But two years later, the Chinese PLA withdrew from 4 places. There was no consensus on patrolling the friction points of Daulat Beg Oldi and Demchok and the Indian Army was stopped in several areas. Now India will be able to patrol everywhere.

On October 1, Indian Army Chief Upendra Dwivedi said that India's position with China is stable, but not normal, it is quite sensitive. We have to fight, cooperate, live together, confront and challenge China. He said that 17 commander level meetings have been held between India and China since April. We have discussed many issues in these meetings.

He said, 'I said this only in reference to the retreat of the troops.
