Arunachal
Pradesh is and always will be a vital component of India; Prime Minister
Narendra Modi made it very clear in a declaration to China on Monday. He made
some very significant points about Arunachal Pradesh in light of the fact that
China has renamed parts of the state, which has provoked a strong reaction from
India.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently told the Assam Tribune that Arunachal Pradesh is and will continue to be an important part of India.
As a country that backs China's imaginary claims to the land, India has strongly condemned China's provocative actions, such as renaming thirty sites in Arunachal Pradesh. This occurs whenever the level of animosity between India and China rises. Chinese characters, Tibetan script, and pinyin (Romanized Mandarin Chinese) were among the many scripts used to write the names of these places. China is the source of the names of these places.
India wasted no time in strongly denouncing Beijing's moves, which it characterized as "senseless attempts" to influence what happened in Arunachal Pradesh. India strongly rejects any proposals like these, according to Randhir Jaiswal, spokesman for the Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). No matter how we rename certain locations, Arunachal Pradesh will always be and will continue to be an integral part of India.
According to Arunachal Pradesh's chief minister Pema Khandu, China's territorial claims are nothing more than "another gimmick." "I strongly condemn this act of naming places within Arunachal Pradesh which has been an inalienable integral part of India." Khandu made the statement while referencing the historical and cultural links between Arunachal Pradesh and India. Arunachal Pradesh and India, according to Khandu, were never split. Khandu went on to stress that Arunachal Pradesh is an Indian state.
Tensions between the two countries have been rising for some time, and one reason is China's continued territorial claims over Arunachal Pradesh. Despite India's long-standing rejection of Chinese claims, Beijing maintains its claim to sovereignty over the north-eastern province. Regarding Arunachal Pradesh, the Chinese Ministry of Civil Affairs has used the term "Zangnan," suggesting that it is part of the Tibetan autonomous province.
The renaming of a geographical location does not change its territorial status, as reiterated by S. Jaishankar, India's minister of external affairs. I was wondering what would happen if I renamed your house right this second. Would I then own it if that's the case? For as long as anybody can remember, Arunachal Pradesh has been an integral part of India. A person's name change, according to Jaishankar, has no significance.
