There have been no incidents of unauthorized entry of the armies of India's neighbouring countries into Indian Territory during the last three months. There is no commonly delineated Line of Actual Control (LAC) between India and China. There are areas along the border where Indian and China have differing perceptions of the LAC. Transgressions occur on account of both sides patrolling up to their respective perceptions of the LAC.
Government regularly takes up any transgressions along the LAC with the Chinese side through established mechanisms including border personnel meetings, flag meetings, meetings of the Working Mechanism for Consultation & Coordination on Indo-China Border Affairs and diplomatic channels.
Government regularly reviews the threat perception to secure our borders and protect national interest. Appropriate measures are taken from time to time to maintain/upgrade the country's defence preparedness along the border to safeguard the sovereignty, territorial integrity and security of India.
