Two youths from Arunachal Pradesh, Batelam Tikro (35) and his cousin Bainsi Manyu (37) have been missing from Chaglagam area of Anjo district in Arunachal Pradesh since August 19, 2022.

Batelam Tikaro's brother Dishanso Tikaro said that Batelam and Bainsi have been taken into custody by the Chinese army PLA. He has contacted local army officials several times to get information about both the brothers. I have been told that the Indian Army has raised this issue with its Chinese counterparts, but they have not yet responded.
Anjo MLA and Arunachal Women and Child Welfare Development Minister Dasanglu Pul confirmed that the two went missing near the Chinese border while searching for medicine. He said that the Chinese side has not yet accepted that the youth is in their custody, but I have been told that he is still alive.
