Along with the help of satellites and drones, Indian security forces are also creating a network of surveillance cameras and sensors to keep a close watch on the Chinese Army along the Line of Actual Control. "A number of these new cameras and sensors have been deployed along the Line of Actual Control from Eastern Ladakh to Arunachal Pradesh to keep a track of adversary's activities", government sources told ANI here. The sources said the surveillance network comprising these cameras and sensors is helping the ground commanders respond swiftly to situations there. The Indian Army had highlighted the need for creating this surveillance network in a briefing to a parliamentary committee to keep a close watch on the Chinese actions there. The Indian security forces and establishment have been asking China to solve the issue first before taking upon other points like de-escalation.
