NEW DELHI, 20 February, 2021 (TON): On Saturday, Indian and Chinese military sets in dialogue to de-escalate tension at the LAC.

At 10 am, the 10th round of Corps Commander meeting started at 10 a.m. at Moldo on Chinese side.

Lieutenant General P.G.K. Menon, Commander of 14 Corps based in Leh is leading the military delegation to discuss the disengagement at the friction areas like Hot Springs, Gogra and 900 square km Depsang plains.

As it is known that the build-up in Depsang was not considered part of the current standoff that started in May last year as escalations here took place in 2013. However, now India has insisted during recent military commander meetings to resolve all issues across Line of Actual Control.

"The initial attempt will be to resolve Gogra and Hot Springs. Finding a solution to Depsang might be tricky and take longer," said an official.

The status of disengagement at northern and southern banks of the Pangong Lake will also be taken into consideration by the representatives during the current round of "corps commander level."

However, just a day ahead of the meeting, China began a "psywar", where it released a video of Galwan Valley clashes on social media accusing Indian Army of being aggressive and leading to the clash.

Indian Army remained silent over the issue and did not react to the video of the clash released by China.

Indian Army along with Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) is physically verifying and re-verifying disengagement at Pangong Lake. However, so far disengagement process at both banks of the Pangong Lake has taken place. The announcement for disengagement was made on 10 February.
