China, Pakistan teaming up against India, warned NSA Doval seven years back

New Delhi/IBNS: National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval had warned seven years ago that Pakistan and China were teaming up against India and funding terror outfits, according to media reports.

According to information available to Zee Media,  Ajit Doval had in 2013 informed that China along with Pakistan has been spying against India, besides supplying arms to militant organizations in the northeast.

In an article titled 'Chinese Intelligence: From a Party Outfit to Cyber Warriors', former Intelligence Bureau (IB) chief Doval has described how Chinese spies are active in several countries including India and are spying for China in a planned manner, reported the Indian news channel.

At the time when Doval wrote this article, he was associated with Delhi's Think Tank Vivekananda International Foundation. A year later, the NDA government in the Centre handed him the responsibility of the NSA. reported Zee Media.

As per Doval, China had intensified the espionage activities against India after Dalai Lama along with his 80,000 followers took refuge in India in 1959. Simultaneously, China also started building a road on NH-219 connecting Lhasa and Jinjiang in the Aksai Chin area. 

According to Doval, Indian intelligence agencies had started providing information about Chinese activities to the government, which, however, did not pay much attention to the inputs then.

In 2013, a Chinese army spy, identified as Pema Tsering, was arrested from Himachal Pradesh's Dharamshala, for spying on Dalai Lama.

Doval also said that Chinese spies have been found involved in a conspiracy against India by colluding with political and defence intelligence and also collaborating with northeast militant organizations for anti-India activities, Zee Media reported.

According to Doval, Chinese intelligence agencies are very active against India and also provide arms and ammo, fund and training to militant groups in India.

In 1966, a group of 300 Naga militants, who were trained in using arms in Yunan province in China, were sent to India. Muivah and Isak Swu, leaders of Naga militants, also included in the group, who had brought huge quantities of weapons from China, to be used against India.

He said it is practiced even today.

The report stated that in the last several years, China conspired to destablize the government in the Centre on a number of occasions. And despite regular information, the government either ignored or refrained from saying anything on it, reports Zee Media.

The revelation was made at a time when India and China are engaged in a bitter standoff along the LAC in recent times.

At least 20 Indian soldiers were killed during a violent standoff between security forces of both the nations in the Galwan Valley earlier this month.
