The Chinese and Indian security forces posted at Doka La, an area near the Sikkim border, are locked in a standoff for almost a month now. Calling India’s actions at the Sikkim border a “betrayal”, China on Monday reiterated that the boundary section between the two countries was well demarcated. China also countered Defence Minister Arun Jaitley’s remarks saying that China of 2017, like India, is also different from 1962. Sikkim, which became a part of India in May 1976, is the only state which has a demarcated border with China.
