While China is busy grabbing Indian territory in the frontier region of Ladakh, the Indian government continues to pursue an open arm policy towards China in Punjab and other states where Chinese workers are undertaking various projects that would help their country's economic growth. The two Chinese workers of a thermal power project in the exclusive picture are seen relishing their traditional cuisine at Banawali in the Mansa district that is considered the backwaters of Punjab.
Chinese were during the BJP regime assigned the job of constructing strategic roads in the areas of Himachal Pradesh adjoining the Chinese occupied region of Tibet. This helped the Chinese gather the ground level information regarding the road network in the region.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has described the 19 kms deep incursions by China in Ladakh as a local affair. Similarly, the then Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru had during the 1962 Chinese invasion tried to downplay the incident by saying that the Chinese have occupied our territory where not a single blade of grass grows.
