The Indian side will be led by Leh-based 14 Corps commander Lt Gen P G K Menon.

Earlier, during the 10th round of Corps Commander-level talk between the two Armies resulted in first disengagement process from the north and south banks of Pangong Tso in February.

“To reach a mutually acceptable solution for complete disengagement from all friction points at the earliest, India and China have agreed to continue their dialogue. This would enable two sides to look at broader de-escalation of troops in the area and work towards the restoration of peace and tranquillity in the border areas. They also agreed that in the interim two sides should continue to maintain stability at ground level and prevent any untoward incident,” the Ministry of External Affairs had said earlier.

The two sides positively appraised the smooth completion of disengagement of front line troops in the Pangong Lake area noting that it was a significant step forward that provided a good basis for resolution of other remaining issues along LAC in Western Sector, a senior army official said.
