THERE'S SCOPE FOR

IMPROVEMENT
Why did india loses war against
china ?
India never suspected that China would ever launch an
attack, but it did. India was attacked on October 20, 1962 in
what famously came to be known as Sino-India war of 1962.
The belief of not ever being attacked by China did not let the
Indian army prepare and the result was the standoff between
10,000-20,000 Indian troops and 80,000 Chinese troops. The
war continued for about a month and ended on November 21,
after China declared a ceasefire.
