Indian Army released photos of soldiers playing cricket in eastern Ladakh, where the two countries have been locked in a tense military standoff since May 2020.
Though the exact location of the 'pitch' was not disclosed by the Indian Army, satellite imagery experts indicate it to be less than 5 kilometers away from the site of the deadly clash in the Galwan Valley.
The release of these photos a day after the meeting between Jaishankar and Qin could be a not-so-subtle signal to China.
Over the past two years, as the Indian Army negotiated a phased withdrawal of troops from the standoff site with China, the political leadership has emphasized that the relationship with China will not be normalized until peace and tranquility are restored.
