BEIJING:
India has planned to recruit and deployed another 100,000 troops along the disputed borders with China and the Chinese southwestern Tibet. The troop increase will come over the next five years, as part of a $13 billion modernisation programme that will mark the largest expansion of the Indian army throughout the sub-continental countrys 60-year history, a Chinese scholar has reported in state media.
Are these new recruits? If so, the question is, are they willing to die for Indian government if China attacks? Do they have the intention and morale for it?
