NEW DELHI: The number of transgressions by the Chinese Army into the Indian territory rose to 426 in 2017 from the 273 in 2016, the Government said today.
Replying to a question in the Rajya Sabha, Minister of State for Defence Subhash Bhamre said the transgressions have occurred due to the differing perception of the two counties of the Line of Actual Control.
“In the year 2017, the number of transgressions was 426 as against 273 in the year 2016,” he said.
The Minister said the Government takes up incidents of transgressions with the Chinese side through an established mechanism. (AGENCIES)
