Has China Consolidated Its Hold On Indian Territory In Arunachal Pradesh?
The Chief of Defence Staff Bipin Rawat said that the controversy about the Chinese coming into the Indian territory and building a new village is "not true", and that the villages were well within the Chinese side of the Line of Actual Control. However, earlier in an official reaction to the US report, the external affairs ministry said India has neither accepted China's "illegal occupation of its territory nor any unjustified Chinese claims". So, has China now consolidated its hold on Indian territory in Arunachal Pradesh?
