New Delhi. The latest statement of CM Pema Khandu of Arunachal Pradesh may once again make China chilly. Pema Khandu said in an interview with news agency PTI on Thursday that historically Arunachal Pradesh borders not China with Tibet. He said that the 1200 km border of Arunachal Pradesh is bordering Tibet. Pema Khandu said that it cannot be denied that China forcibly captured Tibet in 1950. He said that Tibet is officially under China, but we originally share the border with Tibet. Pema Khandu said about the Dam of China on the Brahmaputra river that it is a matter of concern.

CM Pema Khandu of Arunachal Pradesh further said that her kingdom is on three sides with the international border. Arunachal Pradesh has a border of about 1200 km from Tibet, about 150 km from Bhutan and about 550 km from Myanmar. Pema Khandu’s statement may make China look more chilly because China has been claiming Arunachal Pradesh as the southern part of Tibet. China also releases the list of names of all the places of Arunachal Pradesh every year according to its own. At the same time, India has constantly said that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of it. Even in the 1962 war, China had vacated it even after occupying a large part of Arunachal Pradesh.

CM Pema Khandu of Arunachal Pradesh went to Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh to meet and congratulate him on the birthday of Dalai Lama. Apart from him, Kiren Rijiju, a minister in the Modi government, also met and congratulated the Dalai Lama. PM Narendra Modi also sent a congratulatory message to the Dalai Lama. On his 90th birthday, the Dalai Lama created a trust for his successor. China was also angry at this. The Chinese government had said that it will decide who will be the next Dalai Lama. On this, it was said by the Government of India that it is against intervention in any religion. After which China made a statement that India had approved the matter of integrated China. Overall, China is constantly trying to show that it is not ready to listen to anyone on the issue of Tibet. In such a situation, Arunachal Pradesh CM Pema Khandu is bound to respond to the latest statement of Tibet.
