India Will Stand United Against Chinese Incursions: SP

New Delhi/Leh, Sep 20 (ANI): Samajwadi Party leader Naresh Agarwal, on Saturday said that Indians would stand united against Chinese incursions as Chinese President Xi Jinping’s trip to India was dominated by a standoff on a barren Himalayan plateau between soldiers from the two nations. Dozens of soldiers from both sides had a face off on the Ladakh plateau for over a week in a dispute about infrastructure works near the de facto border. Meanwhile, defence expert, Alok Bansal, said that such issues between the two neighbours would remain as long as there was no clear demarcation of the Line of Actual Control (LAC). BJP spokesperson Nalin Kohli said that Modi had held dialogue with Xi on the matter and everyone needs to wait for the outcome. Sep 20, 2014
