External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar was responding to a question raised by MP Manish Tewari in Parliament today. Among other things, he took a dig at members of Congress. He said that the disengagement process between India and China at the Line of Actual Control has been completed and as per the agreement, Indian security forces will go to all patrol points on the eastern border of Depsang.
Manish Tiwari raised the issue in Parliament based on a question raised by IPS officials at the 2023 meeting of police commissioners and inspector general. Tiwari asked how it is now that patrolling 26 patrol points is not easy. At the same time, he also raised questions about the current status of the disengagement process.
Replying to Tiwari’s question, Jaishankar said that someone asks a question through a paper and he also has to answer someone. But I can’t answer them. I can answer the government.

Disengagement Agreement Completed – Jaishankar
External Affairs Minister Jai Shankar said I can answer on behalf of the government. I have given a very detailed explanation on the withdrawal of troops from India and China and the recent developments in the India-China border areas. In that statement, I emphasized that a final agreement to withdraw our troops had been reached, involving Depsang and Demchok.
He further said, I would also like to tell the MPs that the statement also mentioned that Indian security forces will go to all patrol points in Depsang and also to the east, which has historically been the limit of our patrols. In that part it is.
Tensions arise many times
In October this year, India and China signed an agreement on patrol arrangements for the China-India border line of actual control. The border confrontation between India and China began along the Line of Actual Control in eastern Ladakh in 2020. At the same time, many confrontations between soldiers also occurred on the Chinese border. Relations between the two countries have also been affected as a result. Relations between the two countries have been tense for a long time, and the current border situation is normal.
A disengagement agreement was reached after multiple meetings
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, while listing out the government’s efforts, said commander-level talks have been held. I spoke with the Chinese Foreign Minister. The Defense Minister also had a phone call with the Chinese Defense Minister. The defense ministers of the two countries met at the ASEAN meeting. Both parties must respect the LAC. The two sides held talks on breaking away from China. The external affairs minister said there has been complete disengagement in eastern Ladakh.
