India rejects China's latest renaming of places in Arunachal border state

  • On May 14, India strongly dismissed China’s decision to assign new Chinese names to 27 locations in Arunachal Pradesh, describing the action as unwelcome and without justification.
  • This renaming follows a pattern since 2017, with China releasing multiple lists claiming these areas as part of southern Tibet, known as Zangnan.
  • The 27 newly designated locations include fifteen peaks, four mountain passes, a pair of rivers, one lake, and five populated places within the contested border area.
  • India’s External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal emphasized that attempts to rename locations in Arunachal Pradesh will not change the fact that the state has been and will continue to be an essential and inseparable part of India.
  • India’s rejection underscores continuing tension over Arunachal Pradesh, despite recent efforts to improve bilateral ties after a four-year border stand-off with China.
