Talks on to resolve border issues with China: Min

New Delhi, Jan 18: Minister of State for Defence M M Pallam Raju on Monday, Jan 18, said that India need not be alarmed over border issues as talks with China were in progress.

Speaking to reporters, Pallam said, "As long as the border dispute is being worked on and debated between the two countries, we need not be alarmed about all these incidents, whether actual or reported."

Raju noted that the most important aspect of the bilateral relationship with China was the growing trade.

The minister also said in the recently concluded Copenhagen Climate summit both India and China had worked together for their rights.
