"India Foiled China's Move": Rajnath Singh In Parliament

India is "very serious about issues of sovereignty" and the country is prepared for "all contingencies" to ensure that it is maintained, Union minister Rajnath Singh told parliament today in what was seen as a strong warning to China amid repeated transgressions at the Line of Actual Control. Detailing a key meeting in Moscow between him and his Chinese counterpart, Mr Singh said he made it clear that India wants to resolve this issue in a peaceful manner and "want the Chinese side to work with us". But "there should also be no doubt about our determination to protect India's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Mr Singh told parliament as it resumed after more than five months.
