Indian and Chinese troops have begun to disengage at Demchok and Depsang Plains, the two remaining friction points in eastern Ladakh, and this process is likely to get completed by October 28-29, Army sources said on Friday.
Disengagement is a process in which the soldiers, who have been face to face in these areas for the last four and a half years, will move away from each other to pre-designated areas, probably their temporary bases, in a phased and verifiable manner, thereby reducing the chance of a situation spiralling out of control or escalating. A case in point is Galwan where Indian troops and Chinese clashed with each other resulting in deaths on both sides in June 2020.
During the process of disengagement they will un-pitch their tents and take their military and other gear and fall back, palpably reducing tensions ahead of another harsh winter in those inhospitable areas.
