China has said it is ready for talks with India to negotiate and manage the long-disputed border following a direct push by Indian defence minister Rajnath Singh. The statement comes days after Singh met his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun at the SCO meet in Qingdao.
Singh had urged for a permanent solution to the LAC demarcation and troop de-escalation, referring to a “structured roadmap” for resolving tensions. Beijing responded that while the border issue is complicated, established diplomatic and military mechanisms are in place, and both sides must work to keep peace and stability. The 2020 Galwan Valley clash — which claimed 20 Indian and at least 4 Chinese soldiers — had tanked bilateral relations, but recent developments such as talks resuming and Kailash Mansarovar Yatra reopening signal cautious optimism. Both sides have agreed to continue dialogue through Special Representative mechanisms and cross-border initiatives.

The Kerala government has permitted local bodies to conduct euthanasia of diseased stray dogs under the provisions of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Animal Husbandry Practices and Procedures) Rules, 2023.
