Kolkata: The Army is totally geared up to face any situation in the Dokalam sector and any mischief will be dealt with “properly”, General Officer Commanding-in-Chief of Lt. Gen. Abhay Krishna of the Eastern Command said on Saturday.
He was asked about China reportedly stationing its troops in Dokalam, where the two countries were locked in a standoff for over two months earlier this year after the Chinese army tried to build a road in the area claimed by Indian-ally Bhutan.
India feared the road, if completed, would allow China to cut off its access to its northeastern states. The standoff ended in September after the two countries mutually agreed to withdraw their troops from the area.
Stating that he would not name anyone specifically, Lt.
Gen. Krishna said the Indian Army is in high spirits and ready to take on any mischief.
