China threatens India's tough stance, says 'more damage this time than 1962'

New delhi date. Monday, June 22, 2020

India has stepped up security at the Actual Line of Control (LAC) in the wake of violent clashes in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh, prompting China to step down. "India knows that the war with China cannot be won because Delhi knows that if war breaks out, it will be worse than the 1962 war," the Chinese state-run newspaper wrote in a threatening tone.

The newspaper quoted a Chinese expert as saying that nationalism and animosity against China were on the rise in India after the border conflict in the Galvan Valley. In addition to Chinese experts, some in India also said that New Delhi should quell the fire of nationalism at home.

"If India cannot control anti-China sentiment and if there is a renewed war, India will be further humiliated this time after the 1962 border dispute with China," a Chinese expert was quoted as saying by a Chinese government newspaper.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said his government has given the armed forces complete freedom to take all necessary action. At the same time, however, they were seen as trying to reduce stress. Twenty Indians were killed in a violent clash last week. At that time, more than 70 Chinese soldiers were wounded at the Line of Actual Control in the Galvan Valley.

The Chinese supervisors said, "Modi is trying to have a discussion with the nationalists and fundamentalists but he understands that his country cannot have more conflict with China." Because of this they are trying to reduce stress. '

Lin Minwang, a professor at the Center for South Asian Studies at Fudan University in Shanghai, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement would go a long way in easing tensions on the border as he has sidelined extremists targeting China as prime minister.
