India Rejects China ‘Renaming’ Places In Arunachal

India rejected China renaming 11 places in Arunachal Pradesh and asserted that the state has “been” and will “always be” an integral part of India.

China yesterday has released a set of new names for 11 places in Arunachal Pradesh as part of its efforts to reemphasize its claim over the state. This is the third time that China has ‘renamed’ places in Arunachal Pradesh, which it calls “Zangnan, the southern part of Tibet”.
