New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of maintaining “silence” after China reportedly constructed a bridge on Pangong lake in Eastern Ladakh.
“PM’s silence is deafening. Our land, our people, our borders deserve better,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.
He posted a news report which mentioned the story of China’s bridge construction.
China is reportedly building a bridge connecting the north and south banks of Pangong Taso.
The bridge is in China's territory and located around 25 km ahead of the Line of Actual Control, the report said.
Experts say the bridge will provide an additional axis to deploy troops faster between the north and south banks of the lake and closer to the LAC. (UNI)
