Defense ministry denies Chinese army's India trespass

BEIJING, April 25 (Xinhua) -- The Ministry of National Defense on Thursday denied that Chinese border troops and aircraft had trespassed across the line of actual control between China and India.

The media reports on Chinese border troops, military planes and helicopters crossing the line of actual control are "not true," said Yang Yujun, the ministry's spokesman, at a press conference held here.

Chinese and Indian border troops are maintaining communications through existing channels, he said.

China's border troops have strictly observed relevant agreements between China and India and have been working to safeguard border peace, according to the spokesman.
