China-India Border · Full chronicle and history

In the Taksing area of Arunachal Pradesh along the eastern section of the China-India border, the PLA crossed the Line of Actual Control, set up military tents, and has remained stationed there long-term, triggering a standoff.

The Director General of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police confirmed that the tents pitched by the PLA in July remain firmly in place, with the standoff between the two armies continuing for several months.

The PLA erected tents around Taksing in Upper Subansiri district of Arunachal Pradesh on the China-India border and continued the standoff, sparking speculation abroad about the military chain of command and the situation.

On October 26, responding to India's accusation that Chinese troops deviated from established patrol patterns and undermined border peace, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said that China abides by the agreements and consensus reached between the two countries, carries out normal patrol and control activities on the border, and that both sides are maintaining communication through diplomatic and military channels.

Video footage circulating on October 24 showed the Chinese People's Liberation Army and the Indian army in a standoff at the border. According to Indian media reports, the standoff has continued since late July.
