Even as India and China continue to discuss ways to reduce tensions in Eastern Ladakh, it is emerging that the Chinese Army has deployed its troops all along the over 4,000 kilometre-long Line of Actual Control after which India has also rushed its fighting formations to forward locations in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh.
India and China have been engaged in one of the biggest disputes over territory in several years after the Chinese military started building up along the Line of Actual Control in May first week along the Ladakh sector and Sikkim where they came to the Naku La area and had a face-off with the Indian troops there.
"The Chinese military has done military build-up not only just in Ladakh but also in other sectors including Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh wherever it shares borders with us. The build-up includes troops and heavy weaponry which are deployed in rear positions," government sources told ANI.
To avoid any possibility of any misadventure by the Chinese, we have rushed in our fighting formations to forward locations in all these sectors, the sources said.
The reserve brigades of a Corps with an area of responsibility including Himachal Pradesh have gone up to the Ladakh sector to provide backup and cushion to the 3 Infantry Division based in Karu there.
Additional fighting formations have also been moved forward to the border locations in Himachal Pradesh where Chinese choppers had shown up in April.
In Uttarakhand also, additional troops have been deployed in the Harsil-Barahoti-Nelang Valley and other sectors as Chinese choppers had come there also before the build-up started and have been seen carrying out foot patrols.
China is vulnerable supply-line wise vs India.
Sorry but the Indian air force would be decimated on the first day of combat. The Chinese can take whatever territory it wants.
It is one thing to take it. It is another to hold onto it.
The Chinese must be very worried about domestic unrest, to push all these foreign conflicts at once.
islam and leftism are allies because both first require the destruction of Western Civilization before they can implement their respective dystopias.
Correct!
Bully boy China better hope they don’t underestimate the Indians...
India has a sh*tload of trained/veteran mountain corps/groups along that disputed area.
Yeah, of course, despite the bloody nose India gave China in 67. /s
The armies of the Kings of the east. As it says in the Book of Revelation.
The J-20 is an unknown but with typical Chinese strategy they have built it up as an eqvivalent to the J-22. But I doubt the IAF believes that. And they have exercised against the F-22 . The upgraded Su30s will match the Su35s and anyway the Chinese only have 2 squadrons. The Su30s China has are slightly inferior to the Indian MKIs in the electronics and jamming departments.
I don't think your views are anywhere near reality.
I would rather see India throw down with Pakistan.
Maybe they’ll have to do both.
No. The Indians are already ceding territory to avoid a fight they know they cannot win. They did very poorly in the air against Pakistan, who by the way will fly in support of the Chinese as well as provide intelligence. It will be a turkey shoot. The Indian Army will have no air support. This means no resupply and decimation. India is wise to avoid a fight.
The Pakis, Chicoms and Indians all have nukes.
What a wonderful day in the neighborhood...

Do you have a source for that? India has now 20000 troops and reserves in the affected area. No territory will be ceded. If the Chinese don't relent, the economic actions will intensify. They have a US$40 Billion surplus with India.
As for India doing poorly against the PAF, the reality is the MiG-21 did shoot down the F-16B before it was hit by another F-16. It did serve to expose the limited range of the Russian R-77 as a result they will be replaced. But the F-16s firing at the Su30s from 60 km out was pointless. Next time there will be Israeli BVR missiles on those pylons.
Who says they’ll be exclusively run by China?...India has a lot of belligerent Hindus who hate Muslims, Christians, and Jews.
Seems like an orchestrated plan is in place for an end times like war. I hate to say it. But a lot of stuff happening to make it possible.
Isn’t Israel a major supplier to the Indian Army?
This could get messy very quickly.
I agree. I’ve always thought India and SE Asia (including China of course) would play a big “holding” role during the End Times. Well after Russia, Turkey, Iran and most of the Middle East is taken out.
