JAMMU: Not an inch of Indian land has been occupied by China, Ladakh lieutenant governor Retd Brigadier Dr B D Mishra stated on Monday, including that the armed forces have been ready for any eventuality. Mishra was addressing reporters on the North Tech Symposium collectively organised by the Military’s Northern Command Headquarters Udhampur, Society of Indian Defence Producers and IIT Jammu to showcase varied indigenous army gear.
When requested about Congress chief Rahul Gandhi’s comment throughout his current go to to Ladakh and Kargil, claiming that China has occupied a big chunk of land in Ladakh, the LG stated: “I received’t touch upon anyone’s assertion… However I’ve by no means seen even one sq. inch of land the Chinese language have occupied… No matter occurred in 1962 is immaterial. Immediately, we’re in occupation of our land to the final inch.”
“The morale of the troops could be very excessive. Their intent is to defend each sq. inch of land. No one can dare come in direction of India with any design to realize a foothold right here,” Mishra stated, crediting the success to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ready management.
After going by means of the completely different indigenous merchandise on the symposium, Mishra recalled his days within the Military, saying: “Once I was commissioned within the Military in 1961, there was nothing indigenous in my battalion. Our rifles and small arms have been made in Birmingham whereas the watch we acquired was made in Switzerland. However at the moment, there’s nothing non-indigenous.”
