evidence: Although denial and underplaying of incidents on the Sino-Indian border was the general trend, at least on one occasion, the Indian government admitted the Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) intrusion into Indian territory. The PLA reportedly entered 10 km inside the Indian territory in eastern Ladakh and set up a platoon-sized camp on 15 April 2013.7 The incident preceded Chinese Premier Li Keqiang’s state visit to India on 19 May 2013.8 The April 2013 episode was not an innocent transgression; it was, by the Indian government’s own definition, an intrusion–an intentional and provocative breach of the LAC.9 [...] The two incidents that saw New Delhi respond were first, the three- week standoff in Daulat Beg Oldi, near Aksai Chin in April-May 2013, and second, the September 2014 faceoff in Ladakh’s Chumar region. Both were in the Western Sector. A platoon-strength contingent of Chinese PLA came 10 km inside Indian territory in the Burtse sector’s Daulat Beg Oldi area on the night of 15 April 2013 and set up a tented post there.35 The Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) jawans also established a post 300 meters from the Chinese tent and asked the latter for a flag meeting. After the failure of the flag meetings to end the impasse, India sent an army contingent to the site.36 Indian Foreign Secretary, Ranjan Mathai, summoned the Chinese Ambassador to India, Wei Wei, in the third week of April and stressed the need for an early resolution of the issue.37
