New Delhi: A minor scuffle took place between the Indian and Chinese forces on Tuesday after the former stopped the Chinese People's Liberation Army troops from crossing the Line of Control (LAC), according to PTI.
The scuffle lasted for at least 30 minutes, said a report.
The development took place after the Chinese PLA tried to cross the Line of Actual Control at Pangongtso at Ladakh today. However, they were interrupted by the Indian forces and were sent back.
Soldiers on both sides were injured in stone pelting during the confrontation, said officials.
Meanwhile, the Indian government is planning to raise the issue with its Chinese counterparts in a flag meeting on Wednesday.
The latest incident comes in the wake of a stand-off between Indian and Chinese troops along the border in Sikkim.
A ceremonial Border Personnel Meeting on the Indian Independence Day was also not held this time as the Chinese side did not respond to a communication from the Indian side.
