According to Chinese media reports, China will spend approximately 2.6 billion dollars on the project expected to be completed by 2021. The dispute between India and China over Doklam may have partially resolved, but the neighbouring countries are constantly engaged in boosting defence preparedness in the border areas.
According to the intelligence reports, China has deployed ‘622 Missile Brigade’ in Yuxi, which is equipped with guided missiles and also deploying long-range kill missiles at this new base.
