NEW DELHI:

"The PM has denied, but the army keeps on talking to the Chinese and the chief of (Army) staff has said the Chinese are inside our territory. People think wars are fought between armies and their weapons. But wars are fought between industrial systems. China has a far stronger industrial system," Gandhi said in the Lok Sabha while participating in the debate on the motion of thanks on the President's address.
