    India, China continue talks amid border row, call for disengagement

    Months into the India-China border row, both nations held another round of talks to resolve the conflict. The latest round of diplomatic talks comes after a gap of several weeks to resolve tensions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh. During the talks, both sides agreed to work toward immediate and complete disengagement along the LAC. Here are more details.

    India, China border row erupted in early-May

    India and China have held several rounds of diplomatic and military-level talks since a border stand-off near Ladakh's Pangong Tso lake in early-May. Tensions have escalated multiple times at several friction sites along the LAC, including a fatal clash in Galwan Valley in mid-June, which led to the martyrdom of 20 Indian soldiers. Both sides have blamed each other for escalating the conflict.
