India and China complete disengagement in Gogra Hotsprings sector

Both armies were supposed to move back from their present positions towards their respective sides of the LAC and verify each other’s positions after that.

The two sides have now resolved all the friction points that came up after the May 2020 aggression by the Chinese army in an attempt to alter the status quo on the LAC.

The disengagement process included the dismantling of infrastructure built by the two sides at the location where they had deployed troops and other assets.

The previous locations from where they had disengaged included the Galwan area and the two banks of the Pangong Lake in eastern Ladakh.

After moving back toward their respective sides of the LAC from where they were currently positioned, both forces are to check each other’s positions once the disengagement is completed.

After the Chinese army’s attempts in May 2020 to change the LAC’s status quo, the two sides have now ironed out all of their differences.

Dismantling the infrastructure that the two sides had erected where they had stationed their troops and other resources was a part of the disengagement process. They had previously disengaged in the eastern Ladakh region’s Pangong Lake’s two banks and the Galwan region.
