Yup. Just get send the message that further incursions like this will be given one warning before shooting. That will keep them out.
No warning, dude ! We should the first one that crosses over, that will tell we are dead serious !

China builds bunkers inside Indian territory

SEPTEMBER 19, 2011


The incursion took place despite goodwill meetings such as in the India-China border areas.


The Chinese Army destroyed "17 unused bunkers" belonging to the Indian Army in Chumur village near Leh on August 25 when its personnel crossed over to this side of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in two choppers. There are 90 inhabitants in the 27 houses of the village.

A detailed report in this regard, sent to the Jammu and Kashmir government by Leh deputy commissioner Tsering Angchuk, mentions that two Chinese helicopters entered Indian territory on the morning of August 25. He has based this report on the inquiries conducted by the area's sub-divisional magistrate (SDM) and station house officer (SHO).

"Six to seven persons (belonging to the Chinese Army) came out of the helicopter and dismantled 17 structures made up of loose stones as temporary bunkers," the report states, adding: "This was a violation of the International Boundary at points PT-62 and GR No. 368752 of map sheet number 52/ L/ 10." The district administration came to know of the incursion only on September 9, after which an inquiry into the incident was ordered by the deputy commissioner of Leh.

According to intelligence sources, these small-and medium-sized bunkers were not permanent and had been structured only to demarcate the Indian territory limits. "The Chinese Army members also made two symbols, including a star, with stones at the site. No ink was used to make these symbols," the report adds.

The entire episode was witnessed by the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) personnel through binoculars. But they did not report the matter to the local authorities at the time and, instead, sent a report directly to the ministry of home affairs later.

According to sources, the army has asked the defence ministry to take up the intrusion issue with the ministry of external affairs so that steps could be taken to demarcate the boundary with China. The army officers were forced to talk to the defence ministry officials about the boundary demarcation following regular reports of intrusion by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) in Ladakh and elsewhere.

In October 2010, the Jammu and Kashmir government had abandoned work on a development project under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGA), which was aimed at generating employment for locals in the Demchok area. The work on the project was halted after Chinese troops threatened the workers. The road construction work in the same area was stopped in 2009 when some Chinese troops waved guns at the Indian workers.

India and China have signed two landmark agreements - the Peace and Tranquillity Agreement in 1993 and the Confidence- Building Measures Agreement in 1996. To improve the bilateral relations further, the meetings of the border personnel are held seven times a year.

/\/\/\ It would be better, if we catch those border guards and then deny we have caught them. Fear psychosis, just like osmosis will then penetrate the so called psyche of Chinese border guards.
Brilliant! And they would be so scared that they would not even retaliate.:p

I just wonder how people are able to live on those borders. They are more or less at the mercy of those foreign soldiers who can do anything to them and go scott free.

China I don't think wants a war.

They are merely probing to check the reaction of the Govt and the military.
