The situation along LAC seems to be critical as there was no breakthrough in the 14th round of talks between the militaries of India and China. Though India has anticipated for an amicable solution of the logjam, it seems that China has some other plans because the Dragon nation is not coming to terms thus leading to delay in the resolution of the issue. India has time and again said that it wants an early and peaceful resolution but things are not going as desired which can be gauged by the stalemate witnessed in the talks held between the two countries. It will be advisable for the country not to surrender before the Chinese aggression and maintain adequate pressure on Dragon to come to terms as early as possible. It is a known fact that China is an expansionist entity and it has expanded its boundaries by using all kinds of methods and the present situation along the LAC is also one among the same but this time the government in India is not soft, meek or chaotic rather it is the one with strong conviction and resolute will power and that is the reason behind this yearlong stalemate. The way the situation is being tackled by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi led government has no match in the past and for this the government deserves kudos. Although the 14th round of the talks was not successful, India has not lost anything as the two sides agreed to stay in close contact and maintain dialogue to work out a mutually acceptable resolution of the remaining issues at the earliest. This is a significant development and means that India has shown the much required stuff at the meeting. The main issue which is pending between the two countries is disengagement at Patrolling Point 15 (Hot Springs) in eastern Ladakh. It is good that India is hopeful of getting what the country wants and for this the people representing the country should not compromise. The talks which are being held after regular intervals show that both the sides have weight and that is the reason behind the delay. India at this juncture should remain pragmatic and maintain pressure on the Chinese side as the Dragon nation will have to come to terms in the days to come.
