The two countries have completed the first phase of disengagement in the north and south banks of the Pangong Tso Lake and physically verified the process.
The senior commanders of the two countries held their 10th round of talks on Saturday and agreed to stabilise and control the situation on the ground and push for a mutually acceptable resolution of all issues in a steady and orderly manner so as to jointly maintain peace in border areas.
Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Anurag Srivastav today said both sides view the smooth and successful completion of disengagement in the north and south banks as a significant first step as this formed a basis for resolution of remaining issues so as to achieve the eventual goal of complete disengagement in all friction areas.
