The scuffle took place in Galwan valley where senior military officials from both sides are holding meetings to defuse tensions between.

The trigger for the face-off was China's stiff opposition to India laying a key road in the Finger area around the Pangong Tso Lake besides construction of another route connecting the Darbuk-Shayok-Daulat Beg Oldie road in Galwan Valley.

Meanwhile, Defence minister Rajnath Singh also chaired a high-level meeting with the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Bipin Rawat and three service chiefs to take stock of the on-ground situation on the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

The incident comes days after Indian Army Chief General MM Naravane said both sides have begun disengaging from Galwan Valley.
