Satellite images suggest China is constructing a road in the Shaksgam Valley, part of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, near the Siachen Glacier, as reported by India Today. Former Indian Army commander Lt Gen. Rakesh Sharma urges the Indian government to diplomatically protest, emphasizing the road’s illegality and security implications. Situated in the Trans-Karakoram Tract, historically part of Kashmir, it’s depicted as Indian territory post Article 370 abrogation. The road’s potential use for transporting minerals, including uranium, highlights the need for vigilant monitoring by the Indian government to prevent any military maneuvers by China and Pakistan.
