- A precautionary measure against China's aggression

New Delhi on 2nd January 2021 Saturday

The Indian Army will soon buy a dozen high performance boats. Such a boat was needed for patrolling the Pangong Lake area on the Ladakh border.

China has been manipulating the border area since April last year. In order to infiltrate the Indian border as well as to claim some Indian territory as its own, China deployed its army near Pangong Lake on the Ladakh border. However, the jawans of the Indian army bravely repulsed the Chinese army. However, Chinese troops were frequently infiltrating the Indian border. Twice the Indian and Chinese armies came over the bathtub.

Meanwhile, with the onset of winter, the Chinese soldiers felt cold and had to be taken to hospital for treatment. On the one hand, by pretending to negotiate, on the other hand, China was constantly increasing its military support. Now the Indian Army has decided to procure 12 high performance boats for patrolling the Pangong Lake area. The purchase was ratified by the Ministry of Defense.

The Indian Army had given a uniform to Goa Shipyard to build such a boat stating its need. Goa Shipyard confirmed the uniform on Thursday.

At present, 50,000 Indian troops are on duty in eastern Ladakh. The temperature was now minus 20 degrees. Even in such a situation, the Indians were ready to go and fight with China, a military spokesman said. Eight rounds of talks with China have been completed but China has not yet withdrawn its troops, so the Indian military has to be vigilant.

Now the Indian Army has decided to procure twelve such boats as it needs high performance boats for continuous patrolling in the Pangong Lake area. The Indian Army was being forced to keep a constant watch on Chinese movements.
