India and China head to head; 20 indian soldiers killed

The ladakh area has been under the tense clash between India and China, where 20 Indian soldiers had been killed in a clash. Under the pandemic, it seems China and India are focused on some other issues, where they are facing each other to fight for their territory. This area has been under dispute from the last 45 years, China stated that India is breaking its agreement of Line of Actual Control in the Galway valley. India confirmed its casualties, increasing from 17 to 20 while China did not comment on the casualties. But Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian stated that Chinese forces has been provoked to attack Indian army, since Chinese did not want the physical confrontation to happen.

The LAC area has been demarcated poorly and there are rivers and lakes, that is the reason why the line can shift any second and this can become a huge problem for both sides, increasing misconfusion and this can become another conflict among two nuclear countries. China has been accused of occupying 38,000sq km (14,700sq miles) of indian territory, as stated by the indian officials. In 1962, India suffered a humiliating defeat by the hands of china, additionally various soldiers on the both sides have exchanged the blows on the state of Sikkim.

India has also built a controversial road in Ladakh that is also increasing the tensions among the two countries since Chinese has the impression that Indians are trying to occupy more land. This road has boosted the capability of moving men to Ladakh regions, this means the Indian army can gain significant ground because of this road. India has another disputed region of Kashmir with Pakistan that covers mainly 140,000 sq km.
