Chinese could start by giving ultimatum to vacate followed by a serious attempt of taking back the peaks by force. Any fire fight could then escalate to pounding those tops by rockets and artillary followed by ground assault like India did in Kargil. Once the chinese take control of the heights the onus of escalation will then fall back on India.

In all this al lot of media management will be done by china to blame and humiliate India.
This is what I think can happen similar to what has happened in conflicts around globe but it could be not necessarily true.
“Once the Chinese take control of heights...”.? Do you think that it is easy to do that?

If it were only that easy to capture heights. Plus this is not a turn based strategy game.

You may be right. The Chinese are simply postponing the next phase of the conflict to better prepare for it.
But what about our preparation. Are we ready to initiate a larger conflict. What should be our objectives. What do we want. Do we want to recapture Aksai Chin(Hind) now apart from retaking lost areas in Pangong Tso, Depsang etc.

The legendary General Sam Manekshaw reportedly asked the then PM in 1971 to give the army appx 6 months time to get ready. The war objective was clearly defined as the liberation of East Bengal or Bangladesh.

It is up to us to chart out the future course of action and decide what will be an acceptable outcome. If the Government and the military feels that going back to April 2020 positions is not acceptable then we should be prepared to escalate. Our objectives will decide our course of action.
Let our Army stablise the situation on the ridge line they have occupied. In such mountains, it takes years to develop what is called "deliberate Defences", It is not even a a few days since they climbed up to that. At this stage they are barely finding routes to fetch water up hill.

At least many Lakhs of sandbags, many tons of steel and cement. girders, prefabricated huts, FRPs, and tons of steel girders will be required to be hauled up. That is many years of efforts. For the time being they must be planning to connect all posts with vehicle tracks.


You Moron are talking of Aksai Chin, Military operation advance from firm base to firm base and it is not a walk to Khurnak Fort. Even Airborne or Helliborne troops can not do that unless there are good means to link up with them..

any military related/propaganda related bureaucrats should come under Military supervision in high alert modes, a military joota on their heads will only tell them the challenges faced by our brave hearts on border.
You mean that Dik Shit, Ayyar, Tiwari, and other so-called leaders like that Bihari Babua of Mumbai should be dropped over Pengang Tso without para chutes....

Yes, we can station Attack helicopters at DBO but too close for runway & jets. It can get hit by artillery.



Airstrip
Yes, full blown does not make sense aka fighters. Useful for helis, an-26/32 and c-130 that can land unpaved if necessary.
