I bow to your mothers who have given birth to warriors like you," he said.The situation at the India-China border remains tense after 20 Indian soldiers lost their lives in a violent face-off in the Galwan valley on June 15-16 when Chinese troops attempted to unilaterally change the status quo during the de-escalation.Indian intercepts revealed that the Chinese side suffered 43 casualties including dead and seriously injured in the face-off.India and China have been involved in talks to ease the ongoing border tensions since last month.Earlier in the day, Prime Minister made a surprise visit to Ladakh and was briefed by senior officers at Nimu amid tensions with China.
