<h1>Opposition accuses government of legitimising Chinese territorial gains by reconciling without restoring pre-2020 Ladakh borders, ignoring dam and trade harms</h1> The opposition party criticized the ruling government's outreach to China after a bilateral summit, accusing it of legitimising Chinese territorial aggression by pursuing reconciliation without restoring the pre-2020 border status in Ladakh and failing to challenge reported Chinese advances and renaming of places. It alleged government silence on a major Chinese dam project affecting the northeast, on alleged Chinese support to Pakistan in recent cross-border operations, and on persistent trade imbalances harming domestic SMEs. The government responded that leaders agreed to seek a 'fair, reasonable and mutually acceptable' border solution and to expand trade and investment ties.
