Ajit Doval to Attend 25th India-China Border Talks Ahead of BRICS Summit
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval is set to visit Beijing on August 24 to participate in the 25th round of India-China Special Representatives talks with Chinese counterpart Wang Yi, focusing on the longstanding boundary dispute. These talks precede the anticipated BRICS summit in New Delhi, where Chinese President Xi Jinping may meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Both sides emphasize the importance of peace and stability along the border, despite recent reports of Chinese troop movements near Arunachal Pradesh. The dialogue mechanism, established in 2003, remains a key channel for managing tensions.
