''Diplomatically, we are clear with the Chinese...we won't tolerate attempts to unilaterally change LAC. If they continue to do that and build up forces which constitute serious concerns in the border areas, our relationship is not normal and that abnormality is evident in the last few years,'' the External Affairs Minister said in an obvious reference to the ongoing India-China military stand-off at eastern Ladakh.

There was no immediate confirmation of the Chinese claim by the Indian side, but news agency PTI quoted people familiar with the development as saying both sides are in the process of pulling back their armoured units like tanks and armoured personnel carriers.
