New Delhi: Indian and Chinese military officials are set to hold high level talks on Saturday amid the month-long standoff between the two countries over the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.

The talks have been requested by India and will be held at the Indian Border Point Meeting hut in Chushul-Moldo.
