Concerns of Chinese incursion in Arunachal Pradesh have escalated after BJP MP Tapir Gao raised the issue, prompting the All Arunachal Pradesh Students’ Union (AAPSU) to accuse Chinese forces of encroaching into Indian territory in Anjaw district, which borders both China and Myanmar.

This follows a field survey by AAPSU, which claims that the Chinese Army has established camps 60 km inside Indian territory.

The student union is now preparing a report to submit to the BJP-led government.

Byabang Hapo Dui, Finance Secretary of AAPSU, shared these findings with ETV Bharat on Monday. He explained that a student delegation had surveyed forward areas including Ashiliang, Kapapu, Tinya, Plumplum, Pulamma, Preshu, and Hadera Takuru after receiving alerts from local farmers. These areas fall within the Chagalagam revenue circle of Anjaw district.

“In Hadera Takuru, the Chinese Army has set up camps, and reaching these locations is difficult as they are within Indian territory,” echoed Dui.

He added that the Indian Army imposes strict restrictions on access to these areas, especially beyond Kapapu.

Local farmers in Preshu have reportedly vacated their lands due to the Chinese presence, further increasing pressure for immediate intervention from the Central government.

Dui expressed frustration that despite repeated warnings, neither of Arunachal Pradesh’s two Lok Sabha MPs has addressed the issue in Parliament.

Tapir Gao, however, had earlier cautioned that the Chinese Army had intruded into multiple sectors of Arunachal Pradesh, warning that the situation could worsen if the Central government did not resolve the ongoing border dispute with China.

India shares a 3,488 km-long border with China, extending across Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, and Arunachal Pradesh.

The largest stretch, 1,597 km, is in Jammu & Kashmir, with Arunachal Pradesh sharing a 1,126 km border with China. Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Sikkim have borders measuring 200 km, 345 km, and 220 km, respectively.

The borders between India and China remain undemarcated in several areas, with ongoing efforts to clarify and define the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

The difficult terrain, marked by high-altitude mountains, snow-covered peaks, and frozen lakes, has led to occasional skirmishes between the Indian Army and the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
