  • Arunachal Tribal Hunters Find Wooden Bridge ‘Built by China’
    Arunachal tribal hunters find wooden bridge ‘built by China’ [email protected] Guwahati: Tribal hunters in Arunachal Pradesh have stumbled upon a wooden suspension bridge within 100km of McMahon Line that has been reported to Delhi as being built by Chinese troops, a suggestion the Indian Army rejected on Wednesday by citing strict surveillance and an established bilateral military mechanism to prevent any such incursion. “The suspension bridge over Doimru Nullah (rivulet) in Chaglagam Circle has been built with timber sawn from trees felled in that area. Local hunters spotted the bridge on Tuesday and alerted us. I have written about it to the authorities in New Delhi,” MP and state BJP chief Tapir Gao, who represents Arunachal East constituency, said. The bridge location is within a dense forest 25km from the Chaglagam administrative outpost in Anjaw district, which he called as the “last human habitation in that area”. Chaglagam is 100km from the McMahon Line, which demarcates the Tibetan region of China from India’s Northeast along the northern boundary of Arunachal Pradesh. “The construction of a suspension bridge means the Chinese have come almost 60 to 70km inside. This is a serious issue…A decade ago, I had informed the Lok Sabha about the Chinese coming up to 50km inside our territory,” Gao said. In a statement, the Indian Army said there was “no permanent presence” of either Chinese soldiers or civilians in the area. “There is differing perception on the alignment of the Line of Actual Control (LAC), as in many other areas. The terrain is thickly vegetated and all movements are undertaken on foot along nullahs and streams.

  • 1 Introduction 1.1 Brief History Arunachal Pradesh Is Situated On
    Chapter - 1 Introduction 1.1 Brief History Arunachal Pradesh is situated on the extreme North-East extremity of India in the Trans- Himalayan region between the latitude 26º28` to 29º30` N and longitude 91º30` to 97º30` E with an area of 83,743 sq. km. and has a long international border with Bhutan to the West (160 Kms), China to the North and North-East (1080 Kms) and Myanmar to the East (440 Kms). This beautiful land of rising sun was popularly known as NEFA (North-East Frontier Agency) till January 21, 1972. It was administered by the President of India through the Governor of Assam acting as his Agent. NEFA attained the status of Union Territory from 21st January, 1972 under the provision of the North-Eastern Areas (Re-organization Act of 1971) with the new name of ARUNACHAL PRADESH under the charge of a Chief Commissioner with its Headquarters at Shillong, the capital of the State of Meghalaya. From 15th August, 1975 this Union Territory was endowed with a Legislative Assembly having Chief Minister with a cabinet of four Ministers to assist the Lieutenant Governor appointed on the same day as the Administrator of the union Territory. The first General Election to the 30 member Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly was held in 1978, constituting a landmark in the political history of the Territory. The Headquarters of this Union Territory was then shifted from Shillong to Itanagar under then Subansiri District in 1978. Arunachal Pradesh had attained the status of a State on 20 February, 1987. Till May 1980, Arunachal Pradesh consisted of five districts; thereafter numbers of districts were added after passing of the Arunachal Pradesh Reorganization of Districts Acts, 1980, thus there are twenty districts at present in the State, namely, Tawang, West Kameng, East Kameng, Papum Pare, Kurung Kumey, Kra Dadi Lower Subansiri, Upper Subansiri, West Siang, East Siang, Upper Siang, Siang, Dibang Valley, Lower Dibang Valley, Lohit, Anjaw, Namsai, Changlang, Tirap & Longding.
