Option 1 : One wing of the party supported the Indian Government against the Chinese attack

Among the given statements, the following statement is true about the stand of the communist party of India during the India-China war of 1962:

  • One wing of the party supported the Indian Government against the Chinese attack.

  • The main dispute between India and China was about the western and the eastern end of the long border.
  • China claimed two areas within the Indian territory: Aksai-chin area in the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir and much of the state of Arunachal Pradesh in what was then called NEFA (North Eastern Frontier Agency).
  • China launched a swift and massive invasion in October 1962 of both the disputed regions.
  • The China war dented India’s image at home and abroad. 
  • Nehru’s own stature suffered as he was severely criticized for his naïve assessment of the Chinese intentions and the lack of military preparedness.
  • For the first time, a no-confidence motion against his government was moved and debated in the Lok Sabha.
  • The Sino-Indian conflict affected the opposition ie the Communist Party of India (CPI) as well.
  • This and the growing rift between China and the Soviet Union created irreconcilable differences within the Communist Party of India (CPI).
  • The pro-USSR faction remained within the CPI and moved towards closer ties with Congress.

  • They supported the Indian Government against the Chinese attack.

Hence, we can conclude that the following statement is true:

One wing of the party supported the Indian Government against the Chinese attack
