NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday that India's borders were secure and the military was capable of defending them, after 20 Indian soldiers were killed this week in a frontier clash with Chinese troops.


"Nobody has entered our borders or captured our posts," Modi said in a televised statement at the end of an all-party meeting called by his government to discuss the clash.


Modi said India would continue to develop its border infrastructure rapidly, and would not bow down to external pressure.
