India, China to hold first Corps Commander-level talks today at Wacha along LAC in Arunachal Pradesh
The first meeting between the officers at the Corps Commander level in the eastern sector has reportedly been scheduled for September 6.
Today, India and China will hold their inaugural Corps Commander-level discussions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Arunachal Pradesh, according to sources. The meeting at the Wacha-Damai border point will see the Indian side represented by the 3 Corps Commander, Lt Gen Girish Kalia. The purpose of the talks is to address ongoing issues between the two nations along the LAC in the eastern sector.
India and China have differing perceptions of the LAC in their territories, which has led to issues on the ground. Prior to the earlier Galwan clash in 2020, the two sides had conducted Corps Commander-level meetings to discuss the LAC in the Ladakh sector. Since then, the Indian and Chinese sides have been holding such meetings to resolve disputes along the LAC.
However, the discussions began following the visit of National Security Advisor Ajit Doval to China, and the announcement of measures to maintain peace and tranquility along the LAC. The Indian Army has maintained a firm stance in dealing with the position taken by the Chinese troops in the area, as reported by sources.
