The case of detention of an Indian woman from Arunachal Pradesh at Shanghai Airport has now created a major diplomatic controversy. After India expressed strong objection to this incident, China has issued a highly inflammatory and objectionable statement.
China has shamelessly staked its claim on Arunachal Pradesh, saying that it never recognized the so-called Arunachal Pradesh “illegally established” by India.
China’s shameless claim: “Zhangnan is China’s territory”
Responding to the matter, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said, “Zangnan (the name used by China for Arunachal Pradesh) is China’s territory. China has never recognized the so-called ‘Arunachal Pradesh’ established illegally by India.”
He further claimed that whatever procedure was followed on the woman was in accordance with the laws of China and there was no detention or harassment against her.
What is this whole controversy? Where did the story begin?
This whole matter started when an Indian citizen living in UK Pema Wangjom Thongdok Narrated his ordeal on social media.
- What happened to Pema? Pema was going from London to Japan on 21 November. He had a connecting flight at Shanghai Airport in China. Here the immigration officials canceled his Indian passport just because “Invalid” declared, because his birthplace on ‘Arunachal Pradesh’ It was written.
- Pema’s painful question: After this insulting behavior, Pema tagged the Ministry of External Affairs of India on social media and asked a question, “Is Arunachal Pradesh part of China?”.
India had shown a tough stance
After this post of Pema, India had taken a very tough stance on this matter. India had termed China’s move as “absurd” and lodged its serious objection to it. After this strong reaction of India, now this provocative statement of China has come out, which can further increase the tension between the two countries.
