<p>India and China are moving towards a &ldquo;positive direction&rdquo; in their ties and work needs to be done to normalise the relationship, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Wednesday. &ldquo;I think we are moving in a positive direction,&rdquo; he said.</p>
<p>India-China relations plunged to their lowest point since the 1962 war following the Galwan Valley clashes.</p>
<p>Following a series of diplomatic and military talks, the two sides withdrew their troops from several friction along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.</p>
<p>In October last year, the two sides firmed up a disengagement pact for Depsang and Demchok, the last two friction points in eastern Ladakh.</p>
<p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s obviously better than the last time I was here. I think the disengagement, particularly the Depsang-Demchok, was important,&rdquo; he said at the Rising Bharat Summit.</p>
<p>Jaishankar suggested that issues on the border remained to some extent because of the force built up over a period of years. &ldquo;The Kailash Mansarovar Yatra stopped during COVID. It did not resume again. I think there is work to be done. We are at it,&rdquo; he said.</p>
<p>&ldquo;We are sort of trying to see whether a lot of this post-COVID and parallel to the border tension, the combination of these issues&mdash;how much we can progress on this,&rdquo; Jaishankar added. The external affairs minister said both sides are looking into these issues.</p>
