Indian border guards foiled an attempt by Chinese soldiers to enter India's territory on the north bank of Pangong Lake in Ladakh on Tuesday, reported PTI, quoting officials.

When asked to comment on the incident, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hu Chunying said: “I am not aware of the information.”

She said the People's Liberation Army (PLA) troops always patrol along the Chinese side of the Line of Actual Control (LAC). "The Chinese side is committed to peace and tranquillity of the China-India border," she said.

"We urge the Indian side abide by the LAC and relevant conventions between the two sides," she said.
