But the first stage of disengagement, which reduced tensions and paved the way for Modi’s China visit, has still left Indian and Chinese soldiers on the Dolam plateau, even though they are separated by nearly 300 metres since August 28.

Multiple sources have told The Indian Express that this disengagement — wherein both sets of soldiers, along with their tents and road construction equipment, moved away from the faceoff site on Dolam plateau but only by a distance of around 150 metres each — is fully in accordance with the two statements issued by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on August 28."

So Indian troops are still on the doklam plateau.
Means we don't trust the Chinese and are hedging our bets .
Good decision.

Simultaneous plans to move forward certain artillery guns and ammunition from their peace-time locations has also been implemented, while Army engineers have been told to focus on construction of habitat, tracks and helipads in view of these deployments. A plan to improve surveillance capabilities on the China border, by deploying UAVs, is also being put in place, sources said. Although these actions have been initiated after the Doklam standoff, they are based on assessment of future Chinese moves in border areas, sources said."

Basically the 2 sides agreed on partial withdrawal to facilitate the BRICS summit but India is still occupying chinese and Bhutanese claimed territory.

Nothing wrong, both sides retreat 150 meters from border, India is in Doka La, China is still in Doklam, previously India asked China to withdraw from Doklam altogether. See the media spin? At first you said we removed our road building equipment, now you say we move it 150 meters away? Wtf? Remember India came 100 meters into Doklam from the border. 150 minus 100, you are 50 meters within your own border, who cares. As long as you don't step over, all is fine and dandy.

Typical response from a key board warrior.

Both Nations involved are mature , progressive & developing ones. Neither would like to lose its head over a piece of tail.

Problems between two neighbors will happen,resolutions are found through the head not the heart like Indo - Pak issues

Indian media is highly skilled in misleading the public. Lets wait what they are gonna say next when we start the construction next year.

Why next year ? The construction season is still on & shall stay that way till Oct - end / early Nov.

Don't underestimate the importance the chinese give to saving face.
It's the 1st time they had to back down from a inferior power. USA does not count from whom they have backed down frequently.
They will precipitate matters once they feel confident and the Indian army is preparing for that.
I was talking to a communist party guy who was also a industry head , and his arrogance and complexes were very unseemly.
I would clarify not all the senior guys were like him.
Maybe being a commie party senior made him like that.
