Yep, even this one is not directly quoting either Chinese/Indian official Source.
If china reacts, that the best confirmation we could have for now. We seems to have got a bargaining chip.
We are never going to accept this. Because accepting this will make the entire action illegal.

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
Good News! We appear to have seized the initiative.. The Bloody Great Hans spokes man is now asking us to withdraw!
Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
There is definitely some disconnect between PLA and Beijing. For sometime that happened Saturday night/Sunday morning, the Chinis are playing victim today, after we announced the news.
Chinis complaining, we moved across Sikkim border.

A mini Siachin (Hoping we are not doing a Haji Phir by returning)..Capturing heights. History is in making. China reaction just confirms the bloody nose they got.
Whats next? We can expect many probings and counter takeovers by Chinese in coming days. Game is set. In the end we may be having a more defined LAC.
Govt/Army had taken a bold and necessary decision. Its now our DUTY/DHARMA to stand behind the govt/army like a rock.

China urges India to withdraw troops illegally crossing the border line
A Chinese military spokesperson said on Monday that Indian troops have violated the consensus reached at the multi-level talks between India and China and again crossed the line of actual control (LAC) at the border on Monday and purposely launched provocations.
China strongly opposes the acts and urges India to immediately withdraw the troops that have illegally crossed the LAC, said Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Western Theater Command spokesperson Senior Colonel Zhang Shuili on Monday.
Chinese troops are taking necessary measures in response to Indian troops' provocations and will closely follow the situation and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty, peace and stability at the border area, the spokesperson said.

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
It is a dare ...
1. Chinese dared us to up the ante by doing a Pangang Tso maneuver.
2. Now India has does a maneuver of its own in response.
The ball in now firmly with the Chinese side. It is their move.

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
Don't think India wants to do a Siachen. It just wants a return to status quo.
However, India has to be careful henceforth now that the Chinese have show their disdain for ALL agreements. When we mutually vacate the grey zones we must have an iron clad way to pre-empt the Chinese.

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
Wonder what are the jokers in the west doing. They have been rather quiet. Would carry out atleast artillery assaults and heavy infiltration. Wonder if the Paks would risk a American sanction, by joining up with the Chini openly..

Is there positive information on where exactly where this happened? I'm reading 2 different accounts:
1. on the south bank of Pangong So
2. Chushul/Spanggur gap - er... isn’t this the place we have been doing our chai biskoot sessions - and the PLA tried to occupy this ?
What are the "grey areas" here?

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
If we have captured the heights on the bank opposite the Sirjap base, Sirjap would be a sitting duck, giving us a significant advantage over Pangang Tso lake as well as Spanggur lake to the south east of these heights. Since roads have been built from there east wards by the PLA already, we will be really threatening the G219 if push comes to shove.
In fact, G219 is closest from these positions on the southern banks of Pangong Tso lake, compared to another points along the LAC in Ladhak.
If this is what we have done, excellent move by the IA !
However, holding on to these heights during a conflict and through the winter will not be easy and our supply lines will be stretched. This will necessitate the use of IAF to put PLA's bases west of G219 under pressure. If G219 falls into Indian hands, the PLA troops will be stranded and a push to reclaim the rest of Aksai-Chin and Gausthan (Hotan) will be possible.
The Chinese do want us to settle the border after all

Ajai Shukla reporting that China is now occupying two high posts on Indian side of LAC
PLA offensive in Pangong resumes, Chinese take two hilltops on Indian side
PLA offensive in Pangong resumes, Chinese take two hilltops on Indian side
The failure of three months of military and diplomatic dialogue in persuading Beijing to withdraw its troops from Eastern Ladakh was underlined on Sunday when hundreds of soldiers of China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) crossed into the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) south of Pangong Tso lake, occupied a mountain called Helmet Top and began building fortifications.
Credible government sources say Indian soldiers from the nearby Thakung post intervened, to try and prevent the PLA from building defences. Physical clashes followed, though there are no reports of firing or casualties on either side.
Sources say, the PLA now occupies Helmet Top, as well as a nearby feature called Black Top, both of which are on the Indian side of the LAC. From here, Chinese soldiers can observe and track Indian movements across the Pangong lake and as far away as India’s tactically vital Chushul garrison.
...
...
Since the PLA statement refers to Monday, it is not clear whether it refers to the same operation as the India statement, or to a retaliatory operation that the Indian Army might have chosen to remain silent about.
The Pangong sector has been bitterly contested since the PLA trespassed across the LAC here in mid-May. The bulk of the Chinese force occupied the lake’s northern bank, up to a point called Finger 4. Meanwhile, several hundred PLA soldiers climbed the hills that overlook Pangong lake from the north and entrenched themselves on a dominating height called Green Top, where they still remain.
Meanwhile, another 2,000 Chinese soldiers crossed the LAC into the Pangong lake’s south bank and began patrolling up to a mountain called Black Top, which adjoins Helmet Top and India’s important Thakung Post.
Both Black Top and Helmet Top are on India’s side of the LAC. The PLA’s occupation of both features has effectively shifted the LAC westwards, to China’s advantage.
Sources on the ground say the PLA brought along enough building materials to Helmet Top to construct fortifications for three-four infantry companies (300-400 soldiers).
On the north bank of the Pangong lake, the PLA has shifted the LAC to its advantage by about eight kilometres, from Finger 8 to Finger 4. On the south bank, however, the strongly held Thakung post – which has a mixed garrison of army soldiers and Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) troopers – continues to dominate the Pangong lake’s southern bank and observe Chinese activity on the lake and even on the north bank.
India has reinforced Eastern Ladakh strongly and there is anger amongst soldiers and young officers at what they perceive as Chinese perfidy. Many are convinced China is maintaining the pretence of dialogue and negotiations in order to create the opportunity to occupy more Indian territory.

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
All eyes on China. If they dont respond by force.... they will lose their reputation for a long time to come. If they do respond with force it will be a hard fought battle as both sides have been preparing for a while now. Both teams have been prepped. Trump is itching for a war anyways, but he is as unreliable as rotting wood. IA have done the right thing by seizing the initiative and changing the narrative. Bold move.... good move. No fuss.
Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
Looking at the map posted above and checking on Google maps, I'm not sure that Bharat Karnad is reading the terrain correctly.
While PLA can boat across the lake, go up the gradient and trickle down the sheer faces towards the Indian side, doing it the opposite way for the Indian side to start by climbing up the sheer faces will not be easy. Indian troops will also need to watch their backs because there is a Chinese road coming up behind them from Spanggur Tso.

IA, in a reverse action, not only pushed them out but also occupied the said position overlooking the Chinese position on the other side of the ridge.
As usual, Shukla is reporting the Chinese action but hiding the Indian response to push his favored narrative.
