The northern border is stable but "not normal", a top Army commander said, referring to the situation along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Ladakh region.
Lieutenant General Upendra Dwivedi, the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Northern Command, said five of the seven friction points in eastern Ladakh, where the Indian Army and the Chinese PLA are locked in a standoff since May 2020, have been resolved and talks are underway for the remaining areas.
"The northern border area is stable but it is not normal or I can say it's sensitive," he told reporters.
