DG ITBP is rightly worried about the capabilities of China's 16x Border Defence Regiments a highly specialized paramilitary force permanently stationed in occupied Tibet and stationed along the LAC on the Indo Tibetan border . They operate fully integrated with and under the Command of Western Theatre of PLA . They are primarily tasked with routine border managenent , Patrolling and surveillance on foot / vehicles and using drones . They are certainly far far ahead of our ITBP as explained by the DG ITBP . However in his anxiety during the talk he just extrapolated the Chinese paramilitary force as the PLA and his own force as the Indian Army . He need not worry and nor should rest of Indians. Unlike 1962 , Indian Army is presently outmatching the PLA on ground and now even has full offensive capabilities in both Ladhak and Arunachal . DG ITBP instead of worrying about military capabilities of Indian Arny , should concentrate on getting approval from Home Minustry to convert his Force from existing as Armed Police Force into a fully capable border guarding paramilitary force to match the Chinese Border Defence Regiments .

Yeah, because forces that should be protecting our borders are being deployed to stop citizens from protesting. Modi is putting national security at risk by using security forces against his own countrymen. The priority should be securing our borders, not turning Delhi into a fortress to suppress peaceful protests.

'Tough to face China now". CLEAR EYED ASSESSMENT BY DG ITBP ON THE GAP BETWEEN INDIA AND CHINA IN CONVENTIONAL MILITARY CAPABILITY. But DG ITBP holds out hope. Says developing Drone capability is an opportunity. Cites Ukraine. DG ITBP Shatrujeet: "To face China through traditional ways would be tough now. Because, China has invested heavily in the modernization of its forces and has moved ahead. But through drones, small nations can fight bigger nations, as we have seen in the Russia-Ukraine and Iran-USA conflicts. Every Day Russia is sacrificing 10000-15000 soldiers every month."
