What contradiction. MEA said there is agreement to resolve this peacefully. Since day 1, China already said they want to resolve this peacefully but India must retreat first, no negotiations before that. That's the agreement.
Next, MEA said both sides disengaged, that meant India will retreat, and China will not be in war posture pointing weapons at India. Not that MEA explicitly did not use the word mutual withdrawal, but an ambiguous word'disengagement'.
Next, MEA say they were monitoring the disengagement. Maybe China took away missiles, and other heavy weapons to deescalate? But what is confirmed is Chinese troops will continue to be stationed there and patrol Doklam. That's the biggest status quo change. Permanent Chinese presence.
Not sure whether you have idea about the context here ,
There are contradictions between what Chinese sources/ Individuals say and what Indian sources/ Individuals say on the road construction (reason for entire Doklam issue)
