China objects to Amit Shah's Arunachal Pradesh visit on its 34th Statehood Day, claims home minister violated 'territorial sovereignty'

Beijing: China, which claims Arunachal Pradesh as part of south Tibet, has objected to Home Minister Amit Shah’s visit there to attend the statehood day on Thursday, saying it is “firmly opposed” to his trip as it violated Beijing’s “territorial sovereignty and sabotaged political mutual trust”. “Shah is in Arunachal Pradesh to attend the 34th Statehood Day function and launch a number of projects related to industry and roads,” officials said.

ANI[/caption] China routinely objects to Indian leaders’ visits to the northeastern state of Arunachal Pradesh to highlight its claims over it. “China’s position on the eastern sector of the China-India boundary, or the southern part of China’s Tibet region, is consistent and clear,” China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang told online media briefing in Beijing on Thursday while replying to a question. “The Chinese government has never recognised the so-called ‘Arunachal Pradesh’ and is firmly opposed to the Indian politician’s visit to the southern part of China’s Tibet region as it violated China’s territorial sovereignty, undermined stability of the border area, sabotaged political mutual trust, and violated relevant bilateral agreement,” he said. “The Chinese side urges the Indian side to stop taking any action that may further complicate the border issue and take concrete actions to uphold peace and tranquillity of the border area,” he said. The India-China border dispute covers 3,488-km-long Line of Actual Control (LAC). China claims Arunachal Pradesh as part of southern Tibet and the two countries have so far held 22 rounds of Special Representatives talks to resolve the border dispute. On 20 February, Arunachal Pradesh became full state from union territory.
