Arunchal Pradesh MPā??s claim of Chinese incursion

Delhi, Mon, 07 May 2007 NI Wire

May 07: BJP MP Kiren Rijiju of Arunachal Pradesh, bordering India and China, has claimed the intrusion of Chinese force into Indian territory. The MP from the state has told media person that itā??s already in the knowledge of Indian armed forces that Chinese Army patrolling in the area allegedly intrudes deep into Indian territory.

 



However, the ministry of external affairs (MEA) had confirmed that there is no such Chinese incursion and government is in continuous effort to resolve the border issue.

According to the claims made by the same MP, the Chinese Army has been seen patrolling the area. Reportedly, the area that is now in the news has been claimed by both the sides as their own territory. And it has been agreed by both India and China to patrol the area together and agreed to share the same helipad.

The government has however denied the claim. Rijiju has also mentioned that he has already raised the issue in the parliament but the government has not agreed to accept defense personnelā??s claim of Chinese incursions.

Both India and China are trying to solve the border dispute with bilateral talks and hence itā??s not a new issue. China had earlier presented it as a communication breakdown between government and defense personnel but neither India nor China has agreed to talk on the issue openly. The issue needs to be resolved as soon as possible other wise it may lead to serious political and diplomatic breakdown of the Indo-Chinese relation.
