Don't harbour illusions the Chinese military on Monday told India. The largest armed force in the world, People's Liberation Army, the world's largest armed force, said its capability to protect China's territory was "indomitable" and it was ready to step up deployment on the Doklam plateau.

The willingness and resolve of China to defend its sovereignty is indomitable and we will safeguard our sovereignty whatever the cost," defence ministry spokesman and deputy director-general of information office Col Wu Qian said in response to a question on the border row on Monday. He further said that the Chinese troops had undertaken emergency response measures and would step up deployment and drills in the area.

Wu said that the withdrawal of Indian soldiers was a precondition for resolving the situation.. "India should not leave things to luck and not harbour any unrealistic illusions," he also said.

"The crossing of the mutually recognised international border by India is a serious violation of China's territory and runs against international law," he said. China strongly urged India to withdraw its troops and take concrete measures to correct "its errors and put an end to its provocative acts" to maintain peace in border areas.

The history of the PLA of past 90 years has proven our resolve to safeguard sovereignty and territorial integrity, and our capability and resolve are indomitable, he further said.
