| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The ongoing standoff in Ladakh, which started in May 2020, has been the most serious so far in terms of casualties since the Cho La and Nathu La clashes of 1967. The incongruity of the soldiers of two nuclear weapon armed countries, inflicting casualties on each other without use of firearms, came in for much adverse comment. The commentators and the public would have been more informed had they been clear about the confidence building agreements signed between India and China regarding management of and conduct on the Line of Actual Control (LAC). This article gives out the important details of these agreements and provides links where the interested scholar can further research the subject. |
