A major political controversy has erupted after the BJP hosted a delegation of the Chinese Communist Party in Delhi, even as tensions rise over the Shaksgam Valley. The visit marked the first high-level BJP–CPC engagement since the 2020 Galwan clashes. While the BJP says it was only a courtesy meeting with no formal agenda, the Congress has attacked the move, questioning China’s expanding infrastructure activity in disputed territory. With Beijing rejecting India’s sovereignty claims and New Delhi pushing back diplomatically, the meeting has triggered sharp political reactions and intensified debate over India’s China policy.
