New Delhi:
A day after the crucial meeting on China was postponed, apparently to cool temperatures, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also downplayed the issue of transgression by Chinese troops into India.
The prime minister said, "The issue has been blown out of proportion. We see no evidence of increased aggression. On Thursday, the Chinese ambassador met the National Security Adviser and the two had a good discussion."
The Prime Minister may be playing down reports of Chinese incursions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China, but the Indian Air Force (IAF) has taken a big step to shore up its defences.
The IAF landed a plane at a remote high altitude air field in Ladakh.
After this, the Air Force has now demonstrated its ability to keep soldiers on the Ladakh frontline equipped at any time, even in winter when access to these regions is completely cut off.
