New Delhi: China is laying a network of optical fibre cables along the disputed area on the south bank of Pangong Tso in eastern Ladakh. According to fresh reports, the Chinese troops are now preparing for the long haul as high-level talks continue to resolve the four-month-long standoff along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

The mountain peaks in Ladakh have already started gathering snow as temperatures have begun to lower ahead of the long winter.

A senior government official told news agency Reuters that optical fibre cables were spotted that would provide Chinese forward troops with secure lines of “high-speed” communication to bases in the rear.
