China suffered twice as much loss as India in the Galvan Valley clash, Australian newspaper revealed

In the year 2020, there was a violent clash between Chinese and Indian soldiers in Galvan Valley, in which 20 Indian soldiers including Colonel Santosh Babu were martyred. But China has been continuously lying about the number of its soldiers killed in this clash. The Australian newspaper has made a big disclosure in this matter. The newspaper has claimed that China suffered twice as much damage as India in the Galwan skirmish. The Modi government posthumously awarded the Maha Vir Chakra to martyr Colonel Santosh Babu, who led the Indian troops in the Galwan skirmish.

This report, published in the Australian newspaper ‘The Klaxon’ named ‘Galvan Decoded’, has been prepared by a team of independent social media researchers. It cited unnamed researchers and bloggers from China and Weibo user Qiang. It said that the bloggers did not reveal their names due to security reasons, but from what they did, there have been many revelations about the Galvan incident. According to the newspaper, the damage done to China was more than the deaths of four soldiers reported by Beijing.

The newspaper report also revealed that 38 Chinese soldiers drowned while crossing the Galwan river in the valley, after which they died. Panicked by the retaliatory attack by Indian soldiers, Chinese soldiers tried to swim across the fast flowing Galwan river in zero temperature. The report said that what actually happened that night led to the clash. Many facts about it were hidden by Beijing. China told concocted stories to the world.

The dispute over the Line of Actual Control between India and China began in May 2020, when China objected to the construction of roads and bridges by India in the Galwan Valley of Aksai Chin in Ladakh. On May 5, 2020, a military standoff broke out after a violent clash broke out between the Indian Army and Chinese soldiers. After this, on June 15, there was a clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the Galvan Valley of Ladakh. India had officially announced that 20 of its soldiers were martyred in the Galwan skirmish.
