PM Narendra Modi visits Ladakh – two weeks after the Galwan valley standoff with China

<ul><li>Indian Prime Minster Narendra Modi addressed the troops in Ladakh today, July 3.</li><li>"The enemies of India have seen your fire and fury," he said.</li><li>This is Modi’s first visit to Ladakh since the two sides have been locked in a standoff since early May and the June 15 clash that led to the death of 20 Indian soldiers.</li></ul>Addressing the nation from the India-China border in Ladakh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the Indian Army has given a befitting reply to the people to who attempted to conquer its land. “The enemies of India have seen your fire and fury,” Modi told the troops. “When the protection of the country in your hands and you resolute thoughts, there is unbreakable trust. And, citizens India are not worried thanks to you,” he added thanking the troops for their bravery. Modi asserted that the Indian troops' operating at such a height and difficult terrain is an homage to India's strength that no other country can match. He added that India had always pursued the path of peace. "We have always worked towards for the protection of humanity. We have given our life for it," said Modi. At the same, he added that those who are weak can never initiate steps for peace — bravery and courage is a prerequisite for peace. Modi visits Ladakh Earlier today, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Leh to review the ongoing border conflict with China. The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian addressed the issue stating, “Not party should engage in any action that may escalate the situation at this point.” “India and China are in communication and negotiations on lowering the temperatures through military and diplomatic channels,” he added. <div type="twitter" handle="ANI" handlename="ANI" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1497864299/ani_mic_logo_normal.jpg" favoritecount="2121" retweetcount="300" status="India &amp; China are in communication and negotiations on lowering the temperatures through military &amp; diplomatic chan… https://t.co/P1BxezkoHc" createdat="1593762487000" id="1278958686409457666"></div> This is the first time that Modi has visited the region since the two sides have been engaged in a standoff since May. He was accompanied by the Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat and Army Chief General MM Naravane. "You give the citizens of India strength to work day and night — pushing forward and strengthening the idea of an atmanirbhar (self-reliant) country," he told the troops during his address. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="76763940" title="PM Narendra Modi visits Ladakh – two weeks after the Galwan valley standoff with China" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div> Defence Minister Rajnath Singh was originally supposed to visit the area but his visit was reportedly deferred. Instead, Modi is scheduled to meet the soldiers who injured during the clash between Indian and Chinese troops on June 15 that led to the death of 20 Indian soldier and an undisclosed number on the Chinese side. “The bravery that you and your compatriots showed, a message has gone to the world about India’s strength. Nation rests peacefully because of your bravery,” Modi told the troops. The Prime Minister is also going to speak to Lieutenant General Harinder Singh who has been leading the military talks on India’s side. There have been three high-level military discussions so far — one on June 6, another on June 22 and the latest on June 30. Both sides have agreed to disengage in a phased and step-by-step manner. “We expect the Chinese side to sincerely follow up and ensure the expeditious restoration of peace and tranquillity in the border areas as per bilateral agreements and protocols,” India’s Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson, Anurag Srivastava said during the press conference yesterday evening.

PM Modi addresses Indian Army on India-China border — ‘The enemies of India have seen your fire and fury’

Today seems to be a good day for all social media fans in India. In the morning, Supreme Court of India gave Indian citizens the right to post on social media sites without any fear by striking down the draconian Section 66 A of the IT Act in its entirety. And right in the evening we got the news that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) has took another step in his Digital India initiative by launching ‘Twitter Samvad’, a service aimed to boost the nation’s e-governance plans by helping government bodies and leaders communicate directly with citizens on a daily basis via tweets and SMSes on their mobile devices. 
 
PM Narendra Modi announced the rollout of this initiative through a tweet. 
 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">
	
		Lets deepen our connect! Give a missed call on 011 3006 3006 &amp; get my Tweets on your mobile as SMS.
	— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) <a href="https://twitter.com/narendramodi/status/580337412284358656">March 24, 2015</a></blockquote>
 
Through ‘Twitter Samvad’, Government of India will share a set of curated tweets delivered from the government and leaders’ accounts to mobile users across the country as SMS—every day. Updates on government services, policies and activities can be delivered to any user with a mobile device signed up for the service with each of the 16 launch partners. Anyone with a mobile phone, with our without a data plan, can register for the service by giving a missed call to a unique number for each of the partners. 
 
Twitter CEO Dick Costolo, who met Prime Minister Modi to discuss areas of collaboration, said, “Based on Indian technological innovation, Twitter Samvad is dedicated and specially built for the largest democracy of the world. The Lok Sabha election of 2014 was the first-ever Twitter Election in India and we want to continue contributing to the development of digital governance in India. As part of the Prime Minister’s Digital India initiative, this Tweet-powered service enables citizens to be the first to know about the government’s actions by receiving political content in real-time on their mobile devices anywhere in the country.” 
 
The company is demonstrating its commitment to the Indian market by launching Twitter Samvad during the Twitter CEO’s first-ever visit to India. Rishi Jaitly, Twitter’s Market Director for India and Southeast Asia, said, “We are proud to have launched a service here that is for the people and of the people. This can eventually give every political leader and every government organization a mobile microphone to connect with each Indian, whether in Imphal or in Diu or in Leh or in Pudducherry.” 
 
Twitter Samvad is based on the platform provided by ZipDial, an Indian company recently acquired by Twitter, making this the company’s first Indian service launched using indigenous technology. 
 
Here is a list of a 16 government partners who are participating in the launch of Twitter Samvad:

Climate activist Soman Wangchuk announced on Sunday that he will launch another 28-day fast on Independence Day if the government does not invite Ladakh authorities for talks on demands for statehood and <keyword id="22578328" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="constitutional-protection" source="keywords">constitutional protection</keyword> for the union territory. In an interview with PTI, Wangchuk said that the Apex Body, Leh (ABL), and the <keyword id="20055607" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kargil" source="keywords">Kargil</keyword> Democratic Alliance (KDA) from Ladakh submitted a memorandum of demands to Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Dras on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Kargil Vijay Diwas last week. "We did not want to push the government too much during the elections; we were hopeful that the new government would take some concrete steps. If they do not heed our request, if they do not call us for talks, we will launch another round of protest from August 15," he told PTI. In March, Wangchuk went on a 21-day fast, surviving only on salt and water, to demand statehood for Ladakh and its inclusion under the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution to help protect the ecologically fragile region from "greedy" industries. After the abrogation of <keyword id="19914756" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Article-370" source="keywords">Article 370</keyword>, Ladakh became a separate union territory "without legislature". The Buddhist-dominated Leh district had long demanded union territory status due to alleged neglect by the erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir government. However, with the region now entirely administered by bureaucrats, many in Ladakh demand that the union territory be included in the Sixth Schedule, which provides for the formation of Autonomous District Councils (ADCs) with legislative, judicial and administrative autonomy within a state. These councils administer areas under their jurisdiction, making laws on specific matters with the governor's assent. They can establish village councils or courts for dispute resolution and manage facilities and services within their areas, including education and healthcare. They also have the authority to impose taxes and regulate certain activities. Wangchuk had previously said that statehood and constitutional protection under the Sixth Schedule would not impact defence and national security-related projects in Ladakh. Ladakh's former MP, Jamyang Tsering Namgyal of the BJP, had also demanded that the region be included in the Sixth Schedule to safeguard the land, employment and cultural identity of the local population. In 2019, Union Tribal Affairs Minister Arjun Munda promised to do "whatever is required from a constitutional perspective to protect them". In September 2019, the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST) wrote to Home Minister Amit Shah and Munda, recommending that Ladakh be declared a tribal area under the Sixth Schedule.

However, Chinese heavy armoured vehicles are still present in some of the deeper areas of the Galwan Valley as the Indian Army continues to monitor the situation with caution. These are the first steps of disengagement in-line with what was agreed upon during military-level talks on June 30. The People’s Liberation Army (PLA) have shifted their tents, vehicles and troops back between one to two kilometres from the site of the June 15 clash, the wire agency ANI reported citing Indian Army sources. <div type="twitter" handle="ANI" handlename="ANI" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1497864299/ani_mic_logo_normal.jpg" favoritecount="9805" retweetcount="2054" status="Chinese Army has moved back tents, vehicles &amp; troops by 1-2 km from locations where disengagement was agreed upon a… https://t.co/K2ktV0aoSd" createdat="1594016379000" id="1280023588070809600"></div> Officials told the Hindu that temporary structures are in the process of being removed by both sides, and that a physical verification has been conducted. The June 15 clash between India and China left 20 Indian soldiers dead and an undisclosed number of Chinese casualties. 15 days later, during the June 30 meeting, four friction points were identified by the Indian side — Galwan Valley, the Gogra Post, Hot Springs and Pangong Tso. The discussions were led by Lieutenant General Harinder Singh, commander of the Leh-based 14 Corps, and Major General Liu Lin, commander of the South Xinjiang military region. The two first met on June 6 and then again on June 22 in Moldo on the Chinese side of LAC after border tensions erupted between both the countries in May. This time the meeting was hosted on the Indian side of the border in Chushul.
