Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Jiang Yu Tuesday asked India's media to be conducive toward promoting mutual understanding between the two countries amid reports on border tension.

"The Chinese and Indian governments have reached consensus on border issues -- that is the two sides will jointly strive to safeguard peace in the region before final settlement," Jiang said at a press briefing.

China has always strictly abided by the consensus, she said, when asked to comment on Indian newspapers' reports of alleged military incidents on the border with China.

"It's hard to understand some Indian media's purpose when they publish reports that are not accurate," She said.

At the latest boundary talks in August, China and India agreed the two countries push forward the talks process and seek a just and fair formula to solve problems acceptable to both sides.
