NEW DELHI :
Under the India-China agreement on the disengagement process in eastern Ladakh, the Chinese army will pull back its troops to east of Finger 8 areas in the northern bank of Pangong lake, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said in Parliament on Thursday, in what is seen as a significant step to dial down tensions in the key face-off site.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh informed Parliament of a detailed disengagement plan reached nine months after the border crisis broke out, emphasising that India is not giving up any of its claims and that the situation, as of March last year, will be restored at the Finger Area.
