NEW DELHI: The Army troops deployed along the China border from Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh in northeast have reported more than 100 sightings of "Unidentified Flying Objects" (UFOs) in the last three months.
Agencies including the Army, DRDO, NTRO and the ITBP have not yet been able to identify these luminous flying objects.
My Take on this? India and China have disputed borders in this region. Both countries currently hold territory that the other claims as theirs. China and India went to war over these disputed territories in 1962 which China won and at the beginning of this year, the two countries signed an agreement concerning these borders.
China has been flexing it's newfound power throughout the globe recently to claim disputed territories on many fronts. UFO sightings are often the result of military operations and it is likely China is maneuvering to increase it's strength along the borders of these two nuclear powers.
