India has formally put standard names for 27 locations in Arunachal Pradesh on its official map, in a move that comes amid China’s repeated attempts to rename places in the border state.
Beijing claims Arunachal Pradesh as part of what it calls “Zangnan”, while India has consistently rejected the claim and maintained that the state is an integral and inalienable part of the country.
The latest mapping exercise is aimed at removing ambiguity over geographical features and reinforcing India’s official cartographic position.
