New Delhi: India and China are set to hold their ninth round of Corps Commander-level talks today. The ninth round of Corps Commander-level talks is set to take place in Moldo, opposite Chushul sector in Eastern Ladakh.

The eighth and last round of military talks took place on November 6 during which both sides broadly discussed disengagement of troops from specific friction points.

India has all along been maintaining that the onus is on China to carry forward the process of disengagement and de-escalation at the friction points in the mountainous region.

On January 12, Army chief Gen MM Naravane had said that Indian troops will hold their ground as long as it takes to achieve the “national goals and objectives” even as he hoped for an amicable resolution of the prolonged standoff through talks. The standoff erupted on May 5 last.
