India to Resume Patrolling in Ladakh After Key Breakthrough with China

In a notable diplomatic achievement, India and China have finalized a patrolling agreement along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Himalayas, signaling potential disengagement from tensions that have persisted since the 2020 skirmishes. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri confirmed that this arrangement will focus on the sensitive Depsang and Demchok regions.

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi heads to Russia for the BRICS summit, discussions with Chinese President Xi Jinping are anticipated. Previous military talks have underscored the need for peace and respect for the LAC, aiming to restore normalcy in bilateral relations.

Despite previous clashes, including the violent encounters in Galwan, there is cautious optimism regarding further de-escalation. The recent agreements indicate a willingness from both sides to resolve outstanding issues, fostering hope for a more stable relationship moving forward.
