Did not seek US help in tackling Chinese incursions: India

August 21, 2013 11:19

India has denied seeking any assistance from the US on the Chinese border incursions in Ladakh, asserting that New Delhi is capable enough to take care of its own territorial integrity.

"Ultimately it is sovereign function to take care of India's own territorial integrity. We are not going around asking other people to take care of our interest. We are an independent country," National Security Advisor Shivshankar Menon said yesterday as he concluded his six-day US trip, during which he met top officials of the Obama administration.

In April, Chinese PLA troops had intruded 10 km deep inside Indian territory in Ladakh and set up a tented post.
