NEW DELHI: India’s armed forces are capable of handling aggressive Chinese actions in “best suitable ways”, Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat said on Thursday, remarks that came against the backdrop of China’s attempts to change the status quo in certain areas in eastern Ladakh.
In an interactive session at the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum, Gen Rawat said India’s policy of engagement, if not backed by credible military power and regional influence, would imply acknowledging China’s preeminence in the region. (AGENCIES)
