Date:

New Delhi, Sep 10: The disengagement process between Indian and Chinese troops in the Gogra-Hot Springs (PP-15) area started on September 8 at 8.30 am and will be completed by September 12. The landforms will be restored to the pre-stand-off period by both sides, the Ministry of External Affairs said on Friday.

“The two sides have agreed to cease forward deployments in this area in a phased, coordinated, and verified manner, resulting in the return of the troops of both sides to their respective areas,” said MEA official spokesperson Arindam Bagchi in response to media queries. “It has been agreed that all temporary structures and other allied infrastructure created in the area by both sides will be dismantled and mutually verified. The landforms in the area will be restored to the pre-stand-off period by both sides,” he added.

The spokesperson further said that the agreement reached between the two countries ensures that the LAC in this area will be strictly observed and respected by both sides, and that “there will be no unilateral change in status quo.” “With the resolution of the stand-off at PP-15, both sides mutually agreed to take the talks forward and resolve the remaining issues along LAC and restore peace and tranquility in India-China border areas,” Bagchi added. The 16th round of talks between the Corps Commanders of India and China was held at Chushul Moldo Meeting Point on July 17 this year.
