Earlier on Thursday, the MEA had stated that it's regrettable that China has chosen to politicise the Olympics. "The Indian envoy will not attend the opening or closing ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics," MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi stated on reviews of China. The soldier in query, who has been recognized as Qi Fabao, is reportedly a regimental commander of the People's Liberation Army (PLA). Fabao was grievously injured through the bloody conflict between the PLA and Indian troopers within the Galwan Valley in Eastern Ladakh in June 2020.
