At least 20 people have died in clashes between Indian and Chinese troops along the disputed Himalayan border running along the Ladakh area of Kashmir. The Indian Army said there were casualties on both sides, and confirmed three of its soldiers were killed during the clashes, with another 17 later succumbing to injuries. Analysts say the Chinese government, which has been more assertive in building infrastructure in the area, is anxious to frustrate any effort by India to upgrade its own military installations. Earlier this month senior military leaders from both sides met and made a commitment to disengagement. They are led by governments run strongly along nationalist lines, and whose militaries are seen as markers of national status and pride.
