Explains why Beijing has buried the news and the dead.
And Shiv Aroor's articles reinforces the Chinese press release that the action was on the enemy's side.

So the primary units were 16 Bihar and 3 Sikh along with their Ghatak tukdi visiting the enemy.
Imagine the more Hands-on regiments like the Gorkha with the Khukri or Naga with the Dao visiting them!
Or if the enemy is incredibly unlucky, a visit by the SFF.

Ouch

"The incident was caused by India's violation of the agreement and unilateral provocation, and it occurred on the Chinese side of the LAC which is recognized by both sides. The Indian side should take full responsibility for causing the fight. China urges India to strictly punish the perpetrators of the incident, strictly control its troops on the frontline, and ensure similar incidents won't take place again," Wu stressed.

So we know who is there at Pangong Tso!

The other two badges were on soldiers from the 17 Kumaon regiment (called the Bhaduria Paltan for actions in the 1971 war) for acts of valour in the violent May 5-6 night brawl with Chinese troops in the Pangong Tso sector.

The most decorated regiment of the Indian Army!
