Indian, Chinese troops pull back from certain areas in Ladakh: Sources

Chinese and Indian troops have begun "disengagement" in Galwan Valley and two other areas in eastern Ladakh reflecting their willingness to resolve the month-long standoff through talks, military sources said on Tuesday.

However, there has been no change in their posturing in areas like Pangong Tso and Daulat Beg Oldie, they said.

There is no official statement on disengagement of troops either from the defence ministry or the ministry of external affairs. There was no word from the Chinese side as well on the development.

Military sources said both Chinese and Indian armies withdrew some troops and removed temporary infrastructure from Galwan and
