Ahead of Xi's visit, Chinese army intudes into Ladakh
New Delhi, Sept 15 (IBNS): Just two days ahead of Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to India, Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) is trying to intrude into the Ladakh region, media reports said.
"A mixed patrol of Indian Army and Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) troops saw more than 200 Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) troops with 12 heavy vehicles including cranes, bulldozers and a Hummer trying to level a rivulet and construct a temporary road two kilometres into Indian territory," Hindustan Times reported quoting sources.
Meanwhile, BJP MP from Ladakh Thupstan Chewang has said that the Chinese army is threatening people living along the Indo-China border, and is encroaching into the Indian territory.
He alleged that the Chinese troops are "building permanent structures" on the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control.
Chinese President Xi Jinping will be visiting Gujarat on Sept 17.
