Yes, in fact I believe apart from some Uttrakhand/Himachal remote border where we have less presence and infrastructure, DBO is a very ripe target for the Chinese to snatch.

A 3-pronged attack on DBO can be very hard to defend, and it will also allow them to attack Siachen in the next step.
This is worrisome.

I guess we will retaliate by capturing chinese territory elsewhere.

A 3-pronged attack on DBO would have to be quantitative, it can't be pulled off by the kind of numbers China used in its May 2020 gandmasti, or India's bold push onto Black Top. An attack on DBO, an area de facto and de jure controlled by India until now, would give India justification to escalate all the way up to the nuclear domain.

India's surveillance in the area surrounding DBO is first-rate. We'll see them coming in time to para-drop thousands of troops and materiel.

Yes it will be very very hard to defend & will require massive air support as well. Even a stalemate there will be a victory for us.
I don't think Chinese can dislodge us from heights in southern Pangong so whatever they may throw at us.
How will the Chinese supply their troops stationed at DBO?

G-219? Like Gone-219 :rofl:
