Congress Reacts
Congress leader Manish Tewari also reacted to the new map released by China, he told the media, "The absurdity & preposterousness of the Chinese claim is evidenced by the history of the Sino-Indian border dispute...Today, the real issue between India & China is that the Chinese have transgressed along the LAC at multiple points on a theatre level."
Tewari continued to say, "Under those circumstances, the Govt should seriously introspect whether it would be in accordance with India's self-respect to befitting a person in Delhi - Xi Jinping - who is in illegal occupation of 2000 square kilometres of Indian territory along the LAC. That is what needs to be vacated...To sum it up, the Chinese maps are preposterous, they are not in sync with the history of the Sino-India border dispute, China has no claim on Arunachal Pradesh."
