After the release of 10 Indian Army personnel, including four officers, from Chinese People's Liberation Army captivity, the process of disengagement of troops will continue next week, sources said.
The dialogue will take place to ensure that the Chinese PLA pulls back all its troops from the Galwan Valley and removes all the military-grade tents which housed its troops.
