In the first loss of lives in perhaps 45 years at the disputed Indo-China border, the Indian Army lost a commanding officer and two soldiers in "a violent face-off" with Chinese soldiers in the Galwan Valley on the night of 15 June.
The Army's statement on 16 June said that there were casualties on both sides although the Chinese government hasn't declared official numbers yet.
But all this comes barely days after Indian Army Chief Gen MM Naravane said that both sides had begun disengaging in a phased manner along the LAC.
Are things ratcheting up at the border in Eastern Ladakh? What should the Indian side keep in mind at this fragile juncture ? Tune in to The Big Story!
