India-West News Desk

NEW DELHI – India and China have agreed on six points to resolve the border issue after National Security Advisor Ajit Doval met Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi in Beijing.

While the need to maintain peace along the border and trade was discussed, the subject of cheer to Indian Americans was the consensus points on cross-border tourism including in areas like Tibet and cross-border river cooperation and Nathu La border trade and resumption of Kailash Mansarovar Yatra.

In its statement, the MEA said that the special representatives “provided positive directions for cross-border cooperation and exchanges, including the resumption of the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, data sharing on trans-border rivers, and border trade.”

This was the first Special-Representative level meet since the flare-up of incidents at the border.

The meeting follows the bilateral between Prime Minister Modi and President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the BRICS summit held in Kazan last month. It was the first significant breakthough amid the chill that had set in following the clashes in Ladakh’s Galwan — the worst in decades.
