INDIA TO CUT TROOPS ALONG CHINA BORDER

New Delhi, February 9, 1995. According to Agence France Presse, "India plans to reduce the number of troops along its border with China, with which it fought a brief war in 1962, the army chief was quoted Thursday as saying. General Shankar Roy Choudhury said Wednesday that soldiers would be pulled back from the desolate Himalayan frontier to the Brahmaputra valley in the country's northeast. The Hindustan Times reported. India and China have conflicting claims to 128,000 square kilometers (51,200 square miles) of border territory which sparked a brief and bitter war in 1962, resulting in a 12-year freeze in diplomatic ties. India has an estimated 60,000 troops along its border with China. The People's Liberation Army's deployment in the rugged and sparsely inhabited region is believed to be much higher".
