India and China have been going toe to toe for a long time now but when do you think it all started? Do you think it started in 2020? The answer is no !! India and china have been going toe to toe since a long time a very very long time , It all started during the british era !! A british major general John Ardagh Johnson was given the task of conducting a survey in the year 1865 and he was the one who came up with the johnson line along the indian and tibatian region in the year 1897 which was later called the LAC.(The tiwatian region is now controlled by chinese government) At that time himalyan region where the border was proposed was very difficult to navigate and move , heck the area is still very hard to navigate and move through even in 2020 ! So the next natural question is that a border was created but what's the big problem in that ? Well !! The problem was that when the border was created it was officially not recognized by china , china at that time neither accepted nor rejected to the border line . And later when China got stable financially it started building roads and started making bases on the indian side of the border And because of that India and China fought the 1962 war. Which led to nearly 3,000 casualties from Indian side, and 700 from the Chinese side. But That was just the beginning of a long and painful fight between india and china, Over the years India and China went head to head on numerous occasions after 1962 ! in the year 1967 it happened in Nathu La , in 1975 there was a border stand off in Tulung La , In 2013 again there was a border standoff in Daulat Beg sector , It did not stop there !! Stand off continued even in the 21st century !! In 2014 ,2015, 2017 India and China had various stand offs at the line of actual control which resulted in casualty on both sides . Then it happened again in the year 2020. But 2020 was very different. On may 21,2020 chinese soldiers entered the galwan valley and set up 3 posts after india built a road in the indian side of the border which it was frankly entitled to ! China did not take this gracefully and started building bases in the galwan valley in order to counter india And On june 15,2020 indian soldiers had enough of chinese interventions and decided to give a verbal warning to chinese soldiers but it resulted in a fist fight between indian and chinese force This again resulted in a massacre in which india sacrificed 19 soldiers and unknown numbers of chinese soldiers also suffered a blow . And since then the indian and china have had continuous standoffs ranging from galwan valley to ladakh. Both the sides have been gathering soldiers and resources along the LAC . And you might feel like India and China might be heading towards a war on the Line of Actual Control. But will the war happen? That is a billion dollar question ! To which we don't have an answer to right now ! If you ask me there is more to this story than a war between India and China over the LAC!! In reality China has a secret motive of ending India's domination of the trade route in the indian ocean which is right now controlled by india. The one question which will arise is why China would be worried about indian ocean and what China has to lose from it !! The answer to that question is that India controlled indian ocean compounds upto 80% of the global sea based trade . And china is its largest user , china actually imports 80% of its crude oil from the middle east and inorder to get that supply it has to cross the india controlled indian ocean . Not only oil , China imports a lot of goods from european countries and in order to get those goods it again has to cross the indian ocean . In theory India has the ability and capacity to chock the chineses Economy by not allowing chinese to use the sea routes in the indian ocean but for now india has chosen not to do that, And that's what china is
