@MEAIndia

In response to media queries the Official Spokesperson of @MEAIndia Anurag Srivastava said,
" India & China have been discussing through military and diplomatic channels the de-escalation of the situation in the border area in Eastern Ladakh.

Senior Commanders had a productive meeting on 6th June 2020 and agreed on a process for such de-escalation. Subsequently, ground commanders had a series of meetings to implement the consensus reached at a higher level.

While it was our expectation that this would unfold smoothly, the Chinese side departed from the consensus to respect the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Galwan Valley.

मुसीबत के बादल घिरते है तो सबसे ज़्यादा मार उन्हें झेलनी पड़ती है जिनके सिर पर छत तक नहीं होती।मदद,राहत के तमाम आश्वासनों के बावज़ूद ज़मीनी हकीकत है कि घबराए लोग पैदल ही घरों को जा हैं। #कोरोनावायरस से ज़्यादा डर भूख का है। शिकायत है कि राशन तो नहीं मगर पुलिस के डंडे ज़रूर मिले।
