NEW DELHI: Chinese incursions across the Line of Actual Control in the north and east of India are causing some concern in New Delhi.
But India has decided not to push these incidents till the time the Chinese show restraint and caution. Brig (retd) Arun Sehgal says, "It appears that New Delhi has decided to not push the issue militarily though we have the capability." The Press Trust of India in an exclusive story has revealed that two Chinese helicopters reportedly violated the Indian air space in recent months in the Leh area of north Jammu and Kashmir during which they airdropped some canned food in barren land at Chumar, northeast of this Himalayan town, along the border.
They have added the MI series helicopters that entered Indian airspace on 21 June were reported to the nearby defence post by residents of the high- altitude area living along the Pangong lake, prompting the Army Aviation Corps to rush its Cheetah and Chetak helicopters.
Sources told Mail Today that these are disputed areas on which competing claims exist of both China and India.
