China demands India pulls back troops in border dispute
China tells India not 'to push your luck' and pull back troops from Doklam plateau amid rising tension.
  • According to Indian officials, about 300 soldiers from either side face each other about 150 metres apart on the Doklam plateau, an area also claimed by India's ally Bhutan.

    The standoff began in June when Chinese troops started building a road onto the plateau towards India's border.



    India's Nuclear Riddle - People & Power
    Bhutan sought help from India, which sent troops across the border from the northeastern state of Sikkim.

    On Monday, Colonel Wu Qian, a Chinese defence ministry spokesman, said India must not underestimate Beijing's determination to safeguard what it considers sovereign territory belonging to China in the Doklam plateau.

    "China's determination and resolve to safeguard national security and sovereignty is unshakable," Wu told reporters.

    "Here is a wish to remind India, do not push your luck and cling to any fantasies," he added.

    Shake up status quo
    India's External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said the border road has serious security implications.

    "If China unilaterally changes the status quo of the tri-junction, it becomes a matter of security concern for India," Swaraj said in parliament last week.

    Although the Doklam plateau is not part of Indian territory, India is sensitive to Chinese building activity in the region as it would give Beijing access to the so-called "chicken neck", a thin strip of land that connects India and its remote northeastern states.

    India has called for a withdrawal of forces and a negotiated settlement to the standoff.

    Wu, however, reiterated that the withdrawal of Indian border guards was a precondition to resolving the situation.

    "Shaking a mountain is easy but shaking the People's Liberation Army is hard," he said.

    "We strongly urge India to take practical steps to correct its mistake, cease provocations, and meet China halfway in jointly safeguarding the border region's peace and tranquillity," he said.

    He added that the military had taken emergency measures in the region and would continue to increase focused deployments and drills.

    The crisis is expected to be discussed when India's National Security Adviser Ajit Doval visits Beijing this week for a security forum under the BRICS group of large developing nations that includes Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.

    China and India share a 3,500km frontier, large parts of which are disputed.

    The two nuclear-armed powers fought a bloody border war in 1962.

Points to consider :
1) Both India and China are nuclear powers
2) Both can't afford a war
3) This is just a game of who blinks first

Note: The world can survive only 100 nuclear bombs (Which will raise the sea level kill everyone)... so if war happens it means it is the end of the world.

Other that these points, It is just gives a good time to Trolls .... so just enjoy :cheers:

There won't be any nuclear exchange, take my word for it! It's going to be a conventional war. The title will be like "Dhotis against Chinese bullets and rockets".

If Indian think that way, perhaps during 1962 conflict. PLA shall have killed all Indian POW and confiscated all captured weapons. But PLA did not do that. Indian believe showing mercy to enemies is a weakness. Perhaps they need brutal treatment to be educated?


In 1962 chinese had to spoon feed these malnourished soldiers.

Fast forward to 2016-2017 indian soldier is still hungry, maybe china will feed them again.
