Chinese soldiers intrude 500 meters into Indian border

New Delhi: Escalating the Indo-China border tensions, Chinese troops intruded 500 meters and put up tents into Indian territory, as per reports on Sunday.

“Some 30 Chinese soldiers invaded 500 meters area of Demchok in Ladakh on September 11,” say reports.

However, to confront the Chinese troops, around 70 Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) personnel were deployed in the region.

Last month, the Chinese troops reportedly entered almost 25 kms into India. The troops invaded the area of Burtse in Ladakh.

A patrol of Indian troops noticed the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) personnel while moving from their base in Burtse area of north Ladakh, at an altitude of around 17,000 feet.

In 2014 alone, 334 incidents of Chinese troops intrusion into Indian border have been reported.
