India already surrendered Chumar. So we can stop our bullying today

Ladakh stand-off ends as China agrees to pull out troops - The Times of India

Did India make a deal?

The Chinese had been insisting that India dismantle its security and monitoring posts built in Chumar and other areas. India had resisted this because Chumar is considered to have strategic significance, particularly since Indian soldiers can monitor troop movements across the Line of Actual Control from there.

Before the news of the troops withdrawing was announced, some sources had said India might agree to remove some of the structures as "a face saver" to enable the Chinese troops to withdraw to their pre-April 15 positions. Analysts said if the Indian government had indeed agreed to make a deal with the Chinese, this kind of incursion would be repeated over and over again.

The Chinese intransigence had created a political problem with memories of the 1962 war and India's humiliating defeat by China playing in everyone's minds. Both the ruling Congress party and the opposition had asked for Khurshid's visit to be cancelled after Chinese troops refused to withdraw despite three flag meetings with the Indian side.

When we want India to carve away more territory, we will be back.

u forgot that missiles will rain on delhi

Forgive me, but it is not possible for a human being to remember all the stupid, comical claims that little @HongWu makes.

Armoured divisions, thermonuclear weapons, rockets raining on Delhi, permanent base in the campsite, megaton f@rts....

In the end, it amounts to this :

So he will still crow here, about this not being a retreat, but a brave advance in the homeward direction.

After reading all the accounts, it seems the Chinese entered a no-man land contested by both China and India because Indian army had started to fortify its position by constructiong permanent structures. So, India was at fault. Now, both sides have agreed to vacate the contested land, and as a result of this negotiated settlement Chinese troops left the place. So, it is very logical conclusion.
