Arunachal Pradesh MP Tapir Gao said public concern over alleged Chinese incursions along the Line of Actual Control should not be brushed aside. The BJP MP's statement follows reports of PLA activity in the Taksing sector of Upper Subansiri district, which the Indian Army has denied.
The Nah Welfare Society alleged Chinese encroachment near the border. The Army called the reports incorrect, while China said the border situation is 'generally stable'. Chief Minister Pema Khandu plans to discuss the matter with locals and defence forces. Gao had raised the issue in Parliament in 2019.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The Taksing sector lies in a strategically sensitive part of Arunachal Pradesh where India and China have faced multiple face-offs since the 1962 war. Local bodies like the Nah Welfare Society often flag movements the Army cannot publicly confirm. The MP's demand matters because public warnings in border areas have historically preceded official acknowledgement of incursions, as seen in the 2020 Galwan Valley stand-off. Watch for whether the Chief Minister's talks produce any formal complaint to the Ministry of External Affairs.
