The 16th round of Corp Commander-level talks between India and China will be held on Sunday at Chushul-Moldo on the Indian side in Ladakh.

The meeting will be held in continuation with the discussion of the disengagement from friction points along the Line of Control (LAC) in the region.

In addition to the focus on disengagement at Patrolling Point 15 in the Gogra-Hot Springs area, the effort would also be to discuss disengagement from Demchok and Depsang, which have been sticking points in the last few rounds of talks.

The 15th round of the China-India Corps Commander Level Meeting was also held at the Chushul-Moldo border meeting point on the Indian side earlier this year on March 11.

Since the last round of talks, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi visited India in March.
