Even as the border standoff between India and China is close to completing two months, officials said the ceremonial border personnel meetings to mark Independence Day will go ahead between the two militaries as planned on Tuesday.
Such meetings are usually are held on ceremonial occasions, but there were doubts if it would happen this time.
“The meetings are going as scheduled,” a defence source said.
There are five meeting points at Bum La and Kibithu in Arunachal Pradesh, Daulat Beg Oldi and Chushul in Ladakh and Nathu La in Sikkim.
However, there is still no clarity on the annual bilateral military training exercise Hand-in-Hand.
