Indian troops tried to change status quo in Tawang, Indian soldiers give a befitting reply: Rajnath Singh

New Delhi: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha today that Chinese troops tried to change the situation in the Tawang sector, to which the Indian troops gave a befitting reply and chased them away.

“Our soldiers are ready to face any situation on the borders of the country,” the Union Minister said.

It is hoped that parliament will unitedly support the bravery of the soldiers. He said that the matter has also been taken up with China diplomatically.

On December 9, there was a clash between Indian and Chinese troops near the Line of Actual Control in the Tawang sector, in which “some soldiers from both sides suffered minor injuries”.
