Burtse

India and China today held two simultaneous flag meetings along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Jammu and Kashmir's Ladakh region to de-escalate the tension along the border.

A stand-off is on between Indian and Chinese troops in the Burtse region of northern Ladakh. Both sides have sent reinforcements, top officials have told NDTV. The stand-off began after Indian troops dismantled a watchtower the Chinese were building close to the mutually-agreed patrolling line.

Chinese troops have entered 25 to 30 km deep into Indian territory in Burtse area of North Ladakh, officials sources said. This is the same place where they had pitched their tents last year, which led to a tense three-week stand-off.
