It has been almost an entire day since 20 Indian soldiers were killed in what was termed a "violent face-off" with the Chinese army in the Ladakh region but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has so far remained mum on the development.
Scared maybe? That's what many of the Indians think with some even calling Modi "the weakest and the most incompetent PM".
Following the "loss of lives on the Indian side" at the Line of Actual Control (LAC), UK's Telegraph reported citing Indian army sources four soldiers were currently missing and another 32 "handed back after being captured".
But some of the Indians were relentless — and rightly so.
Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti spoke up about the issue, asking why the Indian leadership was suspiciously silent.

Seems like China has hijacked the aggressive ‘ghar main ghuske marengay’ militaristic approach. Nation deserves to know why there is no talk of retaliation to avenge the death of three Indian army personnel!
India "deserves to know why there is no talk of retaliation to avenge the death of three Indian army personnel", she wrote on Twitter.
An Indian defence analyst said the face-off had left the disengagement canard of Ladakh "shattered" and "in tatters".

So the disengagement canard of Ladakh has been shattered and lies in tatters.
This is what many of us had been saying. Lies, lies and damned lies.

Some tense news coming in from #LAC standoff including possible retaliatory action by Indian Army. @adgpi expected to brief defence reporters shortly. The last time bullets were exchanged between armies of #India #China was in 1975 in Tulung La in Arunachal Pradesh.
Journalist Smita Sharma reminisced how "the last time bullets were exchanged between armies of India [and] China was in 1975 in Tulung La in Arunachal Pradesh."

Pakistan, China and Nepal dare India within a week. Trying to remember a time in our history when we achieved this feat. This is India at its weakest and most fragile ever and no media spin can obfuscate this truth.
Prominent journalist Rana Ayyub lambasted the Modi government saying "this is India at its weakest and most fragile ever."
Another media person, Ajai Shukla, was dumbfounded over the matter, noting that the Modi-led government "doesn’t feel obliged to explain what is happening".

Incredible India! With Chinese troops occupying our soil:-
1. Govt doesn’t feel obliged to explain what is happening.
2. The people don’t demand to know and instead delude themselves that Chinese will walk away on their own.
3. Media happy to publish scraps the govt throws it.
Seemingly scared, Shukla said Indians "delude themselves that Chinese will walk away on their own".
Famed reporter Barkha Dutt, too, sounded frightened, saying how India was wrongly focused on Pakistan and that China was New Delhi's "most lethal and dangerous adversary".

For so long we have focused on Pakistan as our main threat, when really Pakistan is a protectorate of China, which has always been India's most lethal and dangerous adversary. The faux romanticism built around not a single bullet fired has died permanently today I hope #Ladakh

Journalist Rohini Singh pointed out the Indian media's hypocrisy, which judged the Modi government's strength "by how much it can bully and silence it’s own citizens and not how well it can protect the nation’s interests".

We now live in times where our TV anchors measure the strength of a government by how much it can bully and silence it’s own citizens and not how well it can protect the nation’s interests. #Ladakh
