India, China Corps Commanders hold talks in Arunachal Pradesh

India and China held Corps Commander-level talks in Arunachal Pradesh on Sunday to address ongoing tensions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The talks, led by Lt General Girish Kalia, commander of the Army’s III Corps, took place at the Wacha-Damai border meeting point, marking the first senior military commander-level discussions between the two nations in recent months.

The significance of these talks lies in the recent tensions in the Taksing area of the Upper Subansiri district, and the ongoing deployment of Indian troops in the region to prevent any escalation. This development comes after a meeting between India’s National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi on August 25, signaling a renewed effort to restore ties that have been strained since the 2020 military standoff along the LAC in eastern Ladakh.
