The Chinese military is holding large-scale military exercises in its traditional training areas including the locations from where they had diverted towards the Indian front in an aggressive manner last summer. The Indian Army is hopeful of resolving the issue soon as they have been holding talks with the Chinese military.

The military and diplomatic parleys have helped in the withdrawal of troops from the Pangong lake area but the stalemate in the other friction points still continues. India and China have been engaged in a military standoff for more than a year now after the Chinese showed aggression along the Indian areas. The Indian side retaliated heavily and deployed more than 50,000 troops and heavy weaponry to check the Chinese aggression.
