We can employ them in Bombay circus in case China needs help." Another user said, "Looks like a task from MTV Roadies."
Here's what netizens had to say:
Violent clashes in Galwan Valley on June 15 left 20 Indian Army personnel dead. The Chinese soldiers used stones, nail-studded sticks, iron rods and clubs in carrying out brutal attacks on Indian soldiers after they protested the erection of a surveillance post by China on the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control in Galwan. After the clashes, the two sides held at least three-rounds of Major General-level talks to explore ways to bring down the tension between the two sides.
