Galwan| After the first round of inconclusive talks over the existing stand-off between India and China in Galwan valley of Eastern Ladakh, a Major General of the Indian Army is holding talks today with Chinese military officers at Galwan valley. The talks are held between the two sides at the same point where Indian and Chinese troops had a violent face-off on Monday night. At least 20 Indian soldiers had to lose their lives in the skirmish with Chinese troops.

According to sources, there is currently no sign of Chinese disengagement in the concerned area. The area is said to be close to the Line of Actual Control (LAC) between both the countries in the eastern Ladakh region.

Foreign Minister S Jaishankar told his China counterpart Wang Yi in a phone conversation on Wednesday that Chinese soldiers took “premeditated and planned action” that was directly responsible for Monday’s clash at Galwan valley.
