India plans to develop a network of strategic roads along its borders with China, a senior military official was quoted as saying in an Indian media report Saturday.


The planned road network in India's remote northeast and the Ladakh region in Indian Kashmir comes against a backdrop of Chinese infrastructure build-up along the border, the Press Trust of India reported.


"By 2013 we would be able to complete work on the bulk of the roads," state-run Border Roads Organization chief Lieutenant General S. Ravi Shankar was quoted as telling reporters in the Indian capital New Delhi.


About 63 per cent of work is complete on 27 roads in the northeastern province of Arunachal Pradesh (i.e. China’s South Tibet) and 12 in Ladakh, Shankar said, adding that these are high priority roads "closely monitored at the highest levels".

The disputed borders have become a focus for friction between the two fast-developing Asian giants.


India has beefed up its military presence along the Chinese border with thousands of extra combat troops, armour and expanded airbases.


Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao met his Indian counterpart Manmohan Singh in New Delhi late last year and reaffirmed a 1993 pledge to maintain peace in border areas and continue talks.


Top MoD sources said that the Indian MoD’s general staff long-term perspective plan (GS-LTPP) caters for Rs 57,000 crore to be spent by BRO on new Sino-Indian border roads by 2022.


Despite this, India trails China substantially in building border infrastructure. Shankar said, “It is not fair to compare us with China. They began work in the 1970s and 1980s. In those days, we were making single-lane roads, which we thought would be enough. Today, we have more money and our thinking is different. So, we are double-laning those earlier roads. We are moving very fast since 2007.” (PTI/AFP/Business Standard)
