Most likely the guy was trying to gather intel on ground. Got caught. Currently in captivity.

Pretty sure the reason Indians aren't parading him around is because of all the other footage the PLA has : )
I am sure Indian soldiers use their own cell phone and took some pictures and will leak to boost their morale.
Maybe because Britain industrialized from 1760 through 1840 when Britain still had STRONG monarchy. So much like East Asian tigers, they introduced "democracy" AFTER industrialization, just like Britain in 1918. India is backwards, democracy before industrialization. They will forever be behind China.
Most likely.

Using Modi's Shudra status to claim that India is not Brahmin-dominated is like using Barack Obama to claim that the United States isn't dominated by people of European descent or the various Hui / Mongol functionaries in the mid-upper CPC to claim that China isn't dominated by people of the Han ethnicity.
The feeling I get is that it's like having a token black person in the workplace (do you have any Dalit colleagues? More importantly, how many Dalit colleagues do you have that are your friends on an equal status?) and claiming there is no racism in the United States.

Of course there's Caste-ism. Of course there's caste that's converted itself into privilege by who has obtained education first, who has obtained networks, Jati and Varna at the top of society, that enable one's relatives and friends to get ahead.

Also, I'll point out the difference between your deceased Brahmin doctor relative and the Chinese volunteers who kept order during COVID-19 and handled logistics. Your doctor relative's job, his Dharma, as a doctor was to put himself in the line of harm. The Chinese volunteers, well, some of them were doctors but many of them were not. And there were also many Indian volunteers who helped out without medical duty concerning COVID-19, but how many of them were Brahmins? How many of them, in contrast, were people from other castes?

"... Chinese Army soldier captured near Demchok area of Ladakh this morning. Currently in captivity of Indian Army. Agencies probing espionage angle. The PLA Corporal is an armoured from Shangxi, has civil/mil documents on him. ..."
If he was a spy why would he carried civil/mil documents on him ?
