China accuses India of crossing borders and attacking Chinese personnel and also the Indian troops on Monday severely violated the consensus reached in the two countries' army commander level talks on June 6 as they cross the border twice for illegal activities.
China and India have agreed to resolve bilateral issues through talks and contribute to the easing of tensions and maintaining peace and tranquility in the border area, Zhao said.
Why physical clash?
Indian and Chinese border patrols typically do not carry firearms in the disputed border zones under mutually agreed protocols intended to prevent an inadvertent escalation of violence.
But troops have engaged in hand to hand combat at several locations along the disputed border in recent weeks. Indian officials said the previous clashes had resulted in a number of injuries to its troops.
