Notably, India, on several occasions, staunchly asserted that the state of Arunachal Pradesh has “always been” and will “always be” an integral part of the country.
China has again enraged New Delhi by incorporating India’s integral regions such as Arunachal Pradesh, and Aksai Chin in their latest edition of the map released on Monday. The so-called standard map released on the website and social media platforms of the state news publication, Global Times, included the disputed areas including Arunachal Pradesh, Aksai Chin region, Taiwan and the disputed South China Sea under their territory.
“The 2023 edition of China’s standard map was officially released on Monday and launched on the website of the standard map service hosted by the Ministry of Natural Resources,” read the post. “This map is compiled based on the drawing method of national boundaries of China and various countries in the world,” it added.
