Krishan Varma, a member of the Advisory Board to the Global Counter-Terrorism Council, while speaking Chinese PLA in Uttarakhand Barahoti conflict said that “China has built around 680 Xiaokang, which they call as ‘well off’ villages on our borders with them, and Bhutan borders. These villages are inhabited by their people who come and live in and impress the local Indian population with how well off they are with the Chinese government. These are intelligence operations, security operations from their side. They try to ‘turn people anti-India’. So we are training our police personnel, regarding these attempts and sensitize them on how to counter their moves.”
