China makes incursions into India 10/23/2007 5:35:12 PM
The age-old contentious issue of border incursion by China into India has cropped up once again. In a startling revelation, the Chief of the ITBP (Indian Tibetan Border Police) has confirmed to TIMES NOW that the Chinese Army has made around 140 incursions into the Indian territory across the Line of Actual Control in the past one year alone.
TIMES NOW has brought the issue of incursion by Chinese Army into the forefront time and again. Despite the Indian government's denial on the incursion issue, TIMES NOW had reported instances of incursions by the Chinese Army into India in Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh.
Just a few weeks back, TIMES NOW had also reported that the Chinese Army had urged the Indian Army to vacate its bunkers in Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh claiming that the bunkers were on Chinese soil. The Indian and Chinese government share a disputed border and are currently engaged in talks to resolve the dispute. Though there has been considerable talk of resolving border disputes, both the countries have avoided talking on the issue publicily. The issue is likely to come up for discussion on Union External Affairs Minister -- Pranab Mukherjee 's -- visit to China later in the week.
