The Indian military’s swift evacuation of thousands of Indians from quake-hit Nepal has put China’s PLA on the defensive with questions raised as to why its efforts to rescue stranded Chinese nationals did not match that of India. The media here has questioned why air force planes were not deployed to airlift over 8,000 Chinese many of whom are still stranded in Nepal. In a rare comparison of India’s military with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), the world’s largest, Chinese defence spokesman Geng Yansheng was on Thursday confronted with the question at a briefing as to why the military did not use planes to airlift stranded Chinese when India had done so to ferry its nationals.
