The 14th session of Corps Commander-level talks between India and China lasted over 13 hours and finished around 10:30 p.m. on the Chinese side at the Chushul-Moldo meeting site.
Lt Gen Anindya Sengupta, the newly-appointed Commander of the 14 Corps located in Leh, headed the Indian team to the negotiations. Maj Gen Yang Lin of the South Xinjiang Military District was to lead the Chinese delegation.
The Indian side also demanded that all remaining friction spots, including the Depsang Bulge and Demchok, be resolved as soon as feasible. On October 10, the 13th round of talks concluded in a deadlock.
Both parties failed to make any progress in the negotiations, with the Indian Army claiming afterward that its “constructive suggestions” were not acceptable to the Chinese side and that it was unable to make any “forward-looking” proposals.
