Indian Army Rejects Reports of Chinese Intrusion on Arunachal border

The Indian Army has denied reports claiming that Chinese troops entered Indian territory and built military camps in Arunachal Pradesh.
In an official statement released on Monday, the Army called these reports "false and baseless."

It said that the security situation along the India-China border is strong and under full control. The Army also assured the public that Indian soldiers are fully prepared to protect the country's borders and that there is no reason for concern.

Claims Made by a Local Organisation

The controversy started after a local group called the Nah Welfare Society (NWS) submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner of Upper Subansiri district in Arunachal Pradesh. The organisation claimed that the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) had slowly increased its presence in the Taksing border area over the past six years.

Main allegations made by the NWS :

• Chinese troops have increased their presence in the Taksing border region.
• Traditional grazing, farming, and hunting lands have been affected.
• Roads, bridges, and military camps have reportedly been built near the border.
• Local people fear losing access to their ancestral land and sacred places.

The 35th meeting of the Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination (WMCC) on India-China Border Affairs was held in Beijing.

The Indian Army has completely rejected these allegations. The Army said that security forces remain alert at all times and regularly monitor the border. It also assured citizens that India’s borders are being protected effectively and that the situation remains peaceful and under control.
