New Delhi, July 13 (PTI): Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will brief leaders of Opposition parties on Friday on the situation in Kashmir and the border stand-off with China, official sources said. Leaders of prominent Opposition parties are being invited for the meeting, where the two senior ministers will give a detailed presentation on the situation along the border with China in Sikkim, and in Jammu & Kashmir. Since then, Indian and Chinese soldiers have been in an eyeball to eyeball standoff in the Dokalam area. Doka La is the Indian name for the region, which Bhutan recognises as Dokalam, while China claims it as part of its Donglang region. Opposition leaders have been criticising the government for the way it has handled the China and Kashmir matter.
