Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday spoke in Rajya Sabha about the ongoing standoff between the Indian troops and Chinese army along the Line of Actual Control(LAC) in Ladakh
The minister asserted that China shouldn't doubt India's resolve to protect India's sovereignty and territorial integrity and said no power on earth can stop the Indian Army from patrolling.
Responding to Opposition's questions on Indian soldiers being pushed back from traditional patrolling points, he assured that there would be no change in patrolling patterns in eastern Ladakh, the site of the dispute.
"The patrolling pattern is traditional and well-defined. No power on earth can stop Indian soldiers from patrolling. Our soldiers have sacrificed their lives only for this," Defence Minister said.
