India had no idea China would launch an attack, but it did. On October 20, 1962, India was invaded in what became known as the Sino-India conflict of 1962. The Indian army was unable to prepare because it believed it would never be attacked by China, resulting in a standoff between 10,000-20,000 Indian forces and 80,000 Chinese troops. The conflict lasted nearly a month and concluded on November 21, when China proclaimed a cease-fire.
