One for the Camera?

New Delhi: Photographs of Indian Army troops holding a large tricolour in eastern Ladakh’s Galwan Valley as part of New Year celebrations were released on Tuesday by top level sources in the security establishment, in a tit-for-tat response to a video by the Chinese state media purportedly showing PLA soldiers unfurling their national flag in the region three days back, sending New Year greetings to the Chinese people from Galwan Valley while resolving to “never yield an inch of land.” The site of the Chinese soldiers celebrating the New Year is in a depth area on their side near the Galwan Valley region and is not close to the buffer zone created in the region after the deadly clash that had taken place on June 15, 2020, sources said –(PTI)
