Indian troops deployed along the disputed Sino-India border in the Himalayan range of the Arunachal sector have increased their patrolling at a tri-junction of India, China and Myanmar to prevent a repeat of a Doklam-like standoff.

Near Tibet

The tri-junction is located around 50 km from Walong, India’s easternmost town in Arunachal Pradesh, near the Tibet region.

“After the Doklam stand-off, we have increased our presence on India’s side of the tri-junction as it is very important for us from the strategic dimension,” a senior Army official said, adding, “After the tri-junction in Doklam in the Sikkim sector, this is the most important tri-junction along the Sino-India border.”

The official said Chinese troops did not enter the tri-junction too frequently, but had developed road infrastructure near the area, which could be advantageous for the mobilisation of troops.
