India Addresses Ongoing Border Tensions and Grey-Zone Tactics Along LAC
Indian and Chinese troops have faced multiple stand-offs along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), particularly in Arunachal Pradesh, with the PLA reportedly using 'Grey-Zone' Warfare tactics to alter the status quo. The Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and Indian Army work jointly to guard the border, while the Ministry of External Affairs notes that Chinese deviations from established patrolling patterns periodically disturb the situation. Despite high-level talks leading to some troop disengagements, underlying border disputes remain unresolved, prompting India to enhance specialized mountain combat capabilities.
