India Names 27 Places in Arunachal Pradesh on Official Map
The official nomenclature of 27 places in Arunachal Pradesh by India strengthens its sovereignty and negates the attempts by China to rename them. The step reflects the significance of map-making in international politics. It also emphasises the significance of good maps, border infrastructure, strategic preparation, diplomacy, and efforts for an acceptable India-China border settlement.
