India asked China to maintain status quo oat DBO sector

New Delhi/Jammu: In the wake of incursion by Chinese troops in Daulat Beg Oldi (DBO) sector in Ladakh, India on Tuesday asked China to maintain the earlier status quo.
Hoping that the situation with China would be resolved peacefully, India said it can be done under the agreements signed by both countries. The recent Chinese incursion was due to differences on alignment of Line of Actual Control, Official Spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs Syed Akbaruddin said.

He added that incident was a “localised event” in a sector where there are differing perceptions on LAC. “We see this as a face to face situation between border forces of both countries,” he said. Speaking about the steps taken by the government since the incident on April 15, Akbaruddin said India has asked China to maintain status quo as it was before the incursion. He underlined that the India-China border continues to remain peaceful. India had raised the issue with China last week immediately after the incident of Chinese incursion came to light.
