Statement from the Indian Army from the incursion of Chinese troops along the LAC in Ladakh.

"On the night of 29/30 August, PLA (People's Liberation Army) troops violated the previous consensus arrived at during the military and diplomatic engagements during an ongoing standoff in Eastern Ladakh and carried out provocative military movements to change the status quo," Colonel Aman Anand, PRO, Army, said.

"Indian troops pre-empted this PLA activity on the Southern Bank of Pangong Tso Lake, undertook measures to strengthen our positions and thwart Chinese intentions to unilaterally change facts on ground. The Indian Army is committed to maintaining peace and tranquility through dialogue, but is also equally determined to protect its territorial integrity. A Brigade Commander level Flag Meeting is in progress at Chushul to resolve the issues," the army said in the statement.
