The 13th Corps Commander meeting on 10 October, 2021 did not yield any result and ended in stalemate due to negative approach adopted by China. So far disengagement has taken place in North and South of Pangong Tso and Gogra. However, not much progress has been made in Depsang buldge, Hot Spring and Demchok.

 

India is insisting on comprehensive disengagement from all the remaining friction points. In the meantime, China is continuously upgrading it's infrastructure and recently in the process of constructing bridge over Pangang Tso connecting North and South Bank of the lake.
