The talks continued until late in the night.As senior army commanders of India and China held talks on implementing a five-point agreement reached between the two countries on disengagement of troops and de-escalation of the situation in eastern Ladakh, government sources said India told China to also pull back first along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).Since China made the first move, they should pull back first and it will be reciprocated by India, government sources told India Today TV.Immediate disengagement in Pangong Tso finger areas, Hotsprings and Depsang was taken up by India on the table on Monday.Sources added that the Indian side said if China is not willing to go back to status quo ante, Indian troops will be deployed for the long haul.The Indian delegation also spoke of the need for a roadmap for disengagement and de-escalation all along the LAC in Ladakh.The Indian delegation at the talks was led by Lt Gen Harinder Singh, the commander of the Leh-based 14 Corps of the Indian Army, while the Chinese side is likely to be headed by Major General Liu Lin, the commander of the South Xinjiang military region.For the first time, a joint secretary-level officer from the Ministry of External Affairs was a part of the Indian delegation.

Another round of talks is unlikely on Tuesday.
