Answer 1

The correct option is A Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false.

China violated the peace treaties it had signed with India and invaded Indian territories in 1962. India was caught off guard and suffered great losses in the war. Eventually, China declared a ceasefire and withdrew its troops to the pre-war position. Full diplomatic relations were restored only in 1976, but the conflicts have not yet been resolved till day.
