Increasing activities by China in depth areas of eastern sector: Eastern Army Commander

China has increased the intensity of carrying out military drills and deployment in its depth areas opposite the Arunachal Pradesh sector and India has correspondingly readied contingency plans to deal with any security challenges in the region.

The IBGs will comprise a mix of infantry, artillery, air DEFENCE, tanks and units and the new set up is expected to revamp the Army’s war fighting capabilities, particularly along the borders with China and Pakistan.
