New Delhi, Jun 19 : Minister of state for defence MM Pallam Raju on Thursday said India’s inability to ‘‘assert’’ itself as a nation has resulted in repeated incursions by China along the border.
‘‘All this is happening because we are failing to assert ourselves as a nation on our stand on what we believe is ours,’’ Raju told meadiapersons here on the sidelines of a seminar on Indian ways of war fighting, organised by Centre for Joint Warfare Studies (CENJOWS).
He said India would take up with China at the ‘‘appropriate highest level’’ the issue of recent incursions by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) into its territory along the line of actual control (LAC).
