I feel stupider knowing this. Thanks for nothing.

Authorizing the use of live ammunition behind closed doors is not in the country's best interest.

The current rule of engagement is still playing a vital role by isolating the violence to tiny skirmishes in the middle of no where.

China and India are both in possession of nuclear weapons, neither side wins if a serious war happens between the two.

The rules of engagement should be collaboratively revised so each subsequent border dispute that result in serious injuries trend downwards.

That datapoint peaked my interest since I've been lurking on dedicated youtube India news outlets channels to monitor the situation, and have not heard of such a drastic escalation.

Digging into the sources of the claim, I can not definitively confirm if it should be taken seriously. The only source of the claim is https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/no-restrictions-on-firearms-india-gives-soldiers-freedom-along-lac-in-extraordinary-times/story-pCcFAcSAkMRschq50Tom1L.html

"two senior officers said on Saturday on condition of anonymity."

It would be a serious flaw in leadership on the India PM side to not disclose a change in their rule of engagement publicly, when rules of engagement on LAC were co-authored by both countries.

Unless the India PM wants to commit political suicide, I don't see how it benefits him if that rumor was true.
