At least two previously undisclosed incidents of skirmishes between Indian and Chinese troops along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) were brought into the public domain by the Indian Army's Western Command. The revelations were made during an investiture ceremony at Western Command's Chandimandir headquarters in northern India.
The citations for gallantry awards, which were read out during the ceremony last week, noted the resolute response of Indian troops to aggressive behaviour by China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) soldiers.
