The disengagement would take place in a phased manner and there are many stand off points. Indian soldiers hold forward positions at Depsang, Gogra Post-Hot Springs, Pangong Tso, Galwan Valley, Chumar and Demchok. There are military negations on in some areas. The officer cited above said that it is due to this that the disengagement would take place in a phased manner and would also take longer than expected.
