Lt Gen Singh said that while India had the capability to escalate further, it made a wise choice to end the conflict after meeting military objectives. 'War is easy to start but very hard to control,' he said. 'So stopping it at the right time was a masterly stroke.'

'China is able to test its weapons against others, so it's like a live lab for them,' he said. He also named Turkey as another country that played a role. 'Turkey provided the kind of support it did, which made a difference,' Singh noted. Inputs from agencies
