The Spanggur Gap (

Spanggur Lake

According to Indian sources, India was in control of the Spanggur Gap during the war of 1962 and there were Indian posts there,^[1]^[2]^[3] but it was taken over by the Chinese army during the Sino-Indian War as the Indian army withdrew in order to bolster defenses of the nearby Indian village of Chushul. India wants to restore the post and take over the pass.^[4]^[5]
