Arunachal CM Describes Border Transgressions as Frequent, Situation Normal
Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu stated that border transgressions by Chinese patrols along the Line of Actual Control are frequent but not new, attributing them to the undefined border and China's non-recognition of the McMahon Line. He described the current situation as normal, with Indian armed forces effectively guarding the border. The Indo-Tibetan Border Police acknowledged ongoing face-offs at multiple locations, prompting political reactions and government assurances of border security.
