evidence: According to Times Now’s article in Central Sector, the contention between India and China is over 2,000 square km of territory, in eight separate areas. Barahoti lies on the border with China in the Chamoli district of Uttrakhand, north of the Nanda Devi National Park. An ITBP source had then told the Indian Express that, "On both occasions [on July 15 and July 25] about 15-20 Chinese soldiers transgressed into the territory at Barahoti that India and China lay claim upon. The soldiers stayed there for a while and returned." Earlier in July this year, an ANI report claimed, "Recently, a platoon (about 35 soldiers) from the PLA was seen operating around the Barahoti area in Uttarakhand. The Chinese were seen doing some activity in this area after a significant breach."
