'VAIN AND PREPOSTEROUS'
-
NEW DELHI/BEIJING: India strongly dismissed China's renaming of 27 locations in Arunachal Pradesh as "vain and preposterous" on Wednesday. The Indian government firmly stated that such attempts cannot change the "undeniable" fact that Arunachal Pradesh "was, is, and will" always be an integral part of India.
This response followed Beijing's announcement of Chinese names for various geographical features in the region, including 15 mountains, four mountain passes, two rivers, one lake, and five residential areas. China continues to claim Arunachal Pradesh as part of southern Tibet, while India maintains its sovereignty over the state.
"We have noticed that China has persisted with its vain and preposterous attempts to name places in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said.
