India on Thursday came down strongly on China for building a bridge across the Pangong Lake in eastern Ladakh, which the External Affairs Ministry said was being built in areas "that have been under illegal occupation by China for around 60 years".
Satellite imagery accessed by geo-intelligence expert Damien Symon indicates that China may be constructing a bridge across Pangong lake in eastern Ladakh.
