The group sought renewed national attention regarding Indian territories under Chinese occupation, specifically Aksai Chin in Ladakh.

A delegation from the Bharat Tibet Sahyog Manch (BTSM) for Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh UT met Rajya Sabha MP Gulam Ali Khatana in Jammu on Thursday. According to the Daily Excelsior, the delegation submitted a memorandum seeking national attention towards Indian territories under Chinese occupation, particularly Aksai Chin in Ladakh.

The submission is part of a nationwide campaign by the BTSM to commemorate the Parliamentary resolution of 14 November 1962. This resolution was unanimously adopted by the Indian Parliament following the 1962 Sino-Indian War during the tenure of Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.

The delegation highlighted the historical and political significance of the resolution, which reflected a collective determination to safeguard territorial integrity. They noted that the resolution reaffirmed the resolve to recover every inch of Indian territory occupied by China.

The delegation was led by BTSM Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh UT president and Intellectual Forum national co-convenor Dr. Vivek Sharma, alongside general secretary Rajinder Sadotra. They urged Khatana to raise the matter at appropriate Parliamentary forums.

The group requested that the MP draw the attention of the Government of India and fellow Parliamentarians towards the historic 14 November 1962 resolution.
