As per news report of NDTV, The talks are to focus on an agreement for the next phase of disengagement from Hot Springs and the overall de-escalation in eastern Ladakh. Earlier this month, Indian soldiers engaged in a tense standoff with Chinese troops who transgressed in Arunachal Pradesh across the Line of Actual Control, sources told NDTV. On August 30, close to 100 Chinese soldiers transgressed 5 km across LAC in Uttarakhand's Barahoti region, North of the Nanda Devi biosphere reserve, and returned after a few hours from the area guarded by the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), news agency PTI said.
