India, China reach pact on border patrolling

Diplomatic and military negotiations have been ongoing since May 2020, when the Chinese military, the People's Liberation Army (PLA), intruded in large numbers into five areas traditionally claimed and patrolled by the Indian Army.

In fierce clashes between the two sides in the Galwan River valley in June 2020, 20 Indian soldiers were killed in action, while an indeterminate number of Chinese soldiers were also killed or injured.

In negotiations since then, the two sides claim to have resolved disagreements over the alignment of the LAC in three areas: Galwan Valley, Gogra-Hot Springs, and Pangong Lake area.

Misri's statement on Monday apparently pertains to Depsang and Demchok - the remaining two areas where the PLA is in possession of Indian territory. These constitute the bulk of the disputed area.

If China is accommodating regarding Depsang and Demchok, a resolution of the Sino-India territorial dispute in Eastern Ladakh could be possible.
