According to the "China Daily" quoted by "Chinese army sources", on September 28, the Chinese border guards carried out routine patrols of the Dongzhang area on the Chinese side of the China-India border as planned, and encountered unreasonable obstruction by the Indian side in the middle of the way, and the Chinese officers and men resolutely countered it and returned after completing the patrol task. The source said that the Dongzhang area is China's inherent territory, and it is completely reasonable and legal for Chinese border troops to organize patrols on their own territory. The recent speculation in the Indian media about the Chinese soldiers being detained "crossing the line" is fictitious and inconsistent with the facts. In this incident, the Indian side deliberately provoked first, distorted and smeared later, seriously violated bilateral agreements and agreements, and the responsibility lies entirely with the Indian side. The Indian side should earnestly abide by bilateral agreements and agreements, strictly control and restrain front-line troops, and work with China to maintain peace and stability in the border areas.
