The Army, referring to a news item, “Talks on restoring patrols at Depsang hit roadblock”, in The Tribune edition dated November 6, 2024, has said the “Indian side has resumed patrolling in its traditional patrolling areas” and both India and China are abiding by the consensus and “no roadblocks have been created by either side”.

Army spokesperson Col Sudhir Chamoli said: “Based on a consensus achieved on October 21, both sides have effectively carried out disengagement. India has resumed patrolling in its traditional patrolling areas. The Army remains committed to the consensus achieved on October 21.” The Tribune, however, stands by its story. The consensus announced on October 21 was for “patrolling arrangements” at Depsang and Demchok. The story was only about the status of restarting patrolling in Depsang. The Army, in its response, has not said patrolling has started on all routes in Depsang. The news item did not question consensus or disengagement process. It only said China was delaying modalities. It did not say the Indian Army was “not abiding” by the consensus.
