NEW DELHI: The People's Liberation Army (PLA) continues to needle Indian forces all along the unresolved Line of Actual Control (LAC) - from Arunachal Pradesh to Ladakh - despite all the "good atmospherics" generated during the recent visits of Chinese premier Li Keqiang here and defence minister A K Antony to Beijing.
In yet another incursion in south-eastern Ladakh, a PLA patrol crossed into Indian territory in the crucial Chumar post area and took away an Indian surveillance camera after dismantling it on June 17.
The video camera was returned only on July 3 after the Indian Army-ITBP team lodged a strong protest during a flag meeting at Spanggur Gap in Chushul sector on June 19.
The Chumar post on the Ladakh-Himachal Pradesh border was the bone of contention even during the 21-day military face-off in April-May, which saw the two rival armies pitching tents and indulging in banner drills after PLA troops intruded 19 km into the Indian territory in the Depsang Bulge area of the Daulat Beg Oldi (DBO) sector.
Though Chumar is some 250-km south of DBO, Indian observation posts and surveillance cameras there have for long irked the PLA since they can "look" into Chinese territory and track troop movements there.
