The tenth round of Corps Commander-level meeting between India and China will be held on Saturday at around 10 am on the Chinese side of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Moldo.

ANI reported that the talks are expected to focus on further disengagement at other friction points from both Northern and Southern banks of Pangong Lake. As the disengagement process in Pangong Tso is over now, so Depsang and Gogra-Hot Spring areas are next on the pullback agenda.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh had also said earlier that disengagement in other sectors along the LAC would also be discussed and made it clear that India has not conceded anything during these talks.

India and China had last month agreed to push for an early disengagement of troops and resolved to continue “effective efforts” to stabilise and control the situation in eastern Ladakh at their ninth round of military talks on the border standoff.

“It was said that both sides agreed to follow the important consensus of the leaders of the respective country and maintain the momentum of talks,” MEA spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said at a media briefing while referring to the joint statement issued after the ninth round of military talks.

Earlier today, China for the first time officially acknowledged casualties in Galwan clash. Four Chinese military officers and soldiers were killed in last year’s Galwan Valley clash.
