Amid reports of a face-off between the Indian Army and Chinese military in eastern Ladakh, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday said that the Centre must come clean on the situation.
“The details of what happened along the border, the government should share with the people,” Gandhi told reporters on Tuesday.
He said, what happened with Nepal and why, what is happening in Ladakh should be made clear.
“I cannot see transparency. The issue of Ladakh and China is a live issue. Transparency is required,” he said.
Gandhi was responding to a question on the face-off on LAC that was triggered the Chinese objected to road construction and development of infrastructure by India within the Indian territory.

Gandhi said that till the time there is no transparency, till that time it would not good for him to speak.
“If I have more information then I will share more details on it,” he added.
