evidence: During the India-China Special Representative dialogues on boundary resolution, State Councilor Wang Yi apparently wanted to discuss status of Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh as part of the dialogue. It is learnt that his Indian interlocutor, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, told Councilor Wang that they would have to permanently wind up the dialogue as Tawang is non-negotiable for India. The 22nd round of SR dialogue was held on this day three years ago. [...] The Yangzte plateau is around 15 kilometers long and 10 kilometers wide with heights ranging from 14000 to 17000 feet. The plateau is critical to the defence of Tawang as it gives Indian Army advantage to dominate Chinese positions across the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and gives them heads-up in case of a surprise PLA attack in the area to gain tactical advantage over Tawang town. But there is more to Tawang, which fell to PLA thanks to inept military and political leadership in the 1962 war. [...] Since Tawang is the birthplace of sixth Dalai Lama, this gives India permanent locus standi in the hallowed Dalai Lama institution. The 14th Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso fled to India to escape Chinese oppression during 1959 Tibet uprising and crossed into Tawang on March 30, 1959.
