Topic: Indo-China Border Talks

Topic Description:

India and China have agreed to hold the next round of meetings on matters related to the boundary question. This after Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the BRICS Summit in Brazil.

The 21st round of India-China border talks, led by Special Representatives (SR) National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and his Chinese counterpart and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, were held at Chengdu in China in November last year.

During the 21st round of talks, both sides resolved to "intensify" and "advance" the dialogue for an early settlement of the boundary dispute..

What is commonly referred to as the “border dispute” between India and China manifests itself in two distinct and separate areas of contention.

One is Aksai Chin and the other is Arunachal Pradesh much of which China claims as Lower Tibet.
