India and China are on track to complete the disengagement of troops at the Demchok and Depsang Plains in Ladakh by October 29, marking a significant step towards easing tensions in the region. The agreement, reached after extensive negotiations, involves the withdrawal of forces from both sides and the resumption of pre-April 2020 patrolling patterns. This development is a crucial breakthrough in resolving the protracted standoff that began in 2020.
