After a tweet by Indian Osint today, I checked official US govt LAC in Depsang and found as per them anything east of the famous Y junction of depsang is on Chinese side. Same in Google earth too as well as Apple Maps. None of them have changed Lac Orientation in their maps in atleast 10 years

But even then, India keeps saying LAC in Depsang is 17 km east of Y junction just to maximalize it claims and gullible Pakistanis and Chinese on internet keep believing it just so they can say India lost 1000 sq km.

Here is NASA map which shows LAC is at Y junction and not 17 km east of Y junction as Indian media claims.

The Y junction isn't famous to any Chinese except maybe local military personnel. First time I'm hearing about it. We don't care and unlike Indians, we don't care what the US thinks about it. We care about our ability to take and hold the ROC, SCS, etc... And we know that whatever India wants, we don't give it to them and if they push for it, we inflict casualties on them, advance our troops, and arrest POWs by the dozens. The Indian military has less chance of taking anything from the PLA than Danny Devito in a wheelchair has of stealing the ball from Lebron. Indian sources say you lost 1,000km^2. So either your media is full of incompetent liars or you lost 1,000km^2... or both.

I think his face is still aching from the time he claimed that India didn’t use T-90 for Tank Biathlon.

You are checking US govt, NASA , Google, Apple, Orange maps to know your country's border?

Where is your official map?

I never claimed India did not ever use T-90 at Biathlon. I said India came 5th jointly in tank biathlon 2018 among 24 nations and I also said Russia never T-90 at biathlon as it is unsuitable for competition due to slow changing gears.

So you dont have a line. But by your claim India is trying to gain territory, right?
Yes post 1962 war, India has always aimed at maximizing it's territorial hold in Ladakh a much as possible. Which is why it puts it's LAC perception at Finge 8 of Pnagong even though it very hard to access from India side due to a natural protrusion in Finger 4.

Funny thing about Pangong Lake is that China has a metalled road from Finger 8 to Finger 4 since 1998 and used to vehicle patrols to Finger 4 regularly for many years.
But now it no longer do that due to patrolling moratarium.

Whereas all Indian patrols till Finger 8 were only small foot patrols that had cross Finger 4 through a narrow ledge.
