Based on reports on September 1, the Sino-Indian confrontation continued. According to Indian media, the Indian Army dismantled the People’s Liberation Army monitoring device near the actual control line. Obviously, this kind of behavior is seen as a cross-border behavior in China. In addition, videos circulated on the Internet show a group of Indian soldiers dancing happily after completing the occupation. However, it was also disclosed by the Indian media that in the latest conflict, 6 Indian troops were killed and 2 of them were identified.
Regarding the behavior of the Indian army, the Chinese semi-official media “Global Times” published a social commentary on September 1, saying that once the Indian army hits China’s bottom line, the PLA will have to take action when it should.
According to information circulating on the Chinese Internet, in response to a possible Sino-Indian border war, a soldier of the People’s Liberation Army wrote a suicide note to his wife, which reads: “If I can’t come back, I will give you a pension; if I’m disabled, give you the divorce certificate; if I come back, give me to you”, sparking heated discussion. This implies that the tension on the border between China and India is already very high.
In the same period, the Indian army also prepared. According to Indian media reports, the Indian army has urgently requisitioned the road from Srinagar to Leh to transport military supplies; at the same time, the Indian army has organized the evacuation of Indian villagers on the west side of Pangong Lake.
