There has been a phased but continuous source-based coverage and commentary about the lack of progress on the disengagement process â with special reference to Gogra-Hot Springs and Depsang Plains â since the 11th Corps Commander-level talks held on 9 April.

China Refuses To Leave Hot Springs, Gogra; Continues Dominating Despang Plains
SRINAGAR: As the Sino-India standoff is about to complete a year; Beijing has refused to vacate Hot Springs and Gogra. The revelations came after 11 rounds of talks that have already resulted in undoing the occupation of the vast Pangong lake belt.
“A highly placed source, involved in decision-making all of 2020, told The Sunday Express that at Patrolling Point 15 and PP-17A in Hot Springs and Gogra Post, the Chinese “had agreed earlier” to pull back troops but “later refused to vacate”,” The Indian Express reported. “In the recent talks, according to the source, China said India “should be happy with what has been achieved”. At these twin points, the source told the newspaper, the current presence of Chinese troops is of “platoon strength”, down from the “company strength” earlier but “they are much inside the Indian side”.

NEW DELHI: Galwan is restless, Sasoma is quiet and Daulat is tirelessly playful. With their 14 Belgian Malinois siblings, these lively canines will now give Indo Tibetan Border Police’s (ITBP)’s dog squad more teeth and, significantly, begin what the border force plans a tradition to go Indian with names.
On Wednesday morning, these puppies, each month-old were lined up at ITBP’s training facility at Bhanu in Haryana’s Panchkula and ordained into the force with a tip of the crutch-sword at an official ‘naam karan’ ceremony as the force has decided to junk its decades-old practice to call its canines with anglicised western names .
