TIL Desk/New Delhi/Beijing/China’s state-run media has warned Prime Minister Narendra Modi not to push India into a “reckless conflict” with China as People’s Liberation Army, as the latter is sufficiently capable of annihilating Indian troops in the border region.
Describing India’s military strength as being “far behind” that of China, the state run said that that if the nearly two-month long tense stand-off was escalated to a military conflict then “It is a war with an obvious result, as PLA has made sufficient preparation for military confrontation. The government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi should be aware of the PLA’s overwhelming firepower and logistics.”
The editorial titled, “Modi mustn’t pull India into reckless conflict”, has warned Indian border troops that there are no rivals to the PLA field forces. “If a war spreads, the PLA is perfectly capable of annihilating all Indian troops in the border region.”
Chinese foreign and defense ministries have been issuing warnings and strong statements against India on a daily basis and termed the standoff as an “illegal trespass of Indian troops into Chinese territory” and vowed “to take all necessary measures to make India withdraw its troops unconditionally”.
