Army Chief General MM Naravane arrives at Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's residence.
The meeting comes after an Indian colonel and two jawans were killed in a "violent face-off" on Monday night with Chinese troops at Galwan Valley in Ladakh, in a massive escalation in the middle of efforts to defuse weeks of tension at the border.
Army sources say the soldiers were not shot but were killed in a physical fight on Indian Territory that involved stones and batons.
Major Generals of both sides are meeting currently, according to an official statement.
