Khandu posted on X: “Another gimmick from China. Being a proud citizen of Bharat and a native of Arunachal Pradesh, I strongly condemn this act of naming places within Arunachal Pradesh which has been an inalienable integral part of India. Proud citizens and patriots of Arunachal Pradesh are rejecting such antics.”
External affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said: “China has persisted with its senseless attempts to rename places in Arunachal Pradesh. We firmly reject such attempts. Assigning invented names will not alter the reality that Arunachal Pradesh is, has been and will always be an integral and inalienable part of India.”
Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma urged the Centre to adopt a “tit-for-tat” approach in response to the Chinese actions.
