Original Note:
While it is true that India & China previously had an agreement to avoid the use of firearms, the agreement was not silent. It was a part of a bilateral agreement made in 1996, and commanders can over-rule it. The video presented as part of this fact is digitally altered. https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/no-restrictions-on-firearms-india-gives-soldiers-freedom-along-lac-in-extraordinary-times/story-pCcFAcSAkMRschq50Tom1L.html
