The parliamentary standing committee on defence has decided to visit the Galwan Valley and Pangong lake in eastern Ladakh region which has been witness to a violent stand-off between the troops of India and China, PTI reported on Friday quoting sources.
The 30-member committee, chaired by senior BJP leader and former Union Minister Jual Oram and of which Rahul Gandhi is also a member, wishes to visit the eastern Ladakh region in the last week of May or in June.
The decision to visit these areas was taken in the panel's last meeting, the report said, adding since the panel intends to visit the LAC, it depends on the approval from the government.
