“Not Even A Square Inch Of Land Occupied By China”: Ladakh Lt Governor

Not even one square inch of Indian land has been occupied by China, Ladakh’s Lieutenant Governor Brigadier BD Mishra (Retd.) asserted today, adding that the armed forces are prepared to give “a bloody nose” to anyone engaging in any misadventure.

Asked about Congress MP Rahul Gandhi’s remark on China occupying a large chunk of land in Ladakh, he said, “I won’t comment on anybody’s statement. But I will state facts because I have seen for myself that, on the ground, China has not occupied not even a square inch of land.”

“Whatever happened in 1962 is immaterial. Today we are in possession of our land to the last inch,” he said.

Responding to reporters, the Lt Governor said, “Our armed forces are prepared for any eventuality. And, God forbid, if the balloon goes up, people will get a bloody nose from us.”

The morale of the troops is very, very high, he said.
