India-China Troop Disengagement: A Step Towards Amicable Resolution

India and China are in the final stages of troop disengagement at friction points in Demchok and Depsang Plains, eastern Ladakh. The agreement involved diplomatic and military discussions, aiming to revert to pre-2020 status. The process promises to resolve the long-standing standoff along the Line of Actual Control.

In eastern Ladakh, India and China are edging closer to a resolution, with troop disengagement at Demchok and Depsang Plains entering its final phase, official sources confirmed on Tuesday.

After diplomatic and military-level talks, an agreement was signed, paving the way for Indian troops to withdraw equipment, a crucial move toward ending the protracted standoff.

The disengagement agreement is pivotal, expected to restore areas to pre-April 2020 status and mend ties strained by the 2020 Galwan Valley clash. This breakthrough follows endorsements by Indian PM Modi and China's President Xi during the BRICS Summit.
