ITANAGAR, Nov 27: Arunachal Pradesh MP Ninong Ering has written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging him to provide constructive suggestions as he will be meeting President of China Xi Jinping in Argentina during the G-20 summit. The bilateral relationship between India and China is very critical from Arunachal Pradesh's viewpoint as the state forms international borders with China, the MP said in his letter.
Ering said,"I would like to share some of the concerns of people of my state Arunachal Pradesh not only as their representative but also as an ordinary Arunachalee whose day starts with greeting “Jai Hind”. The issue of China providing stapled visa to people from Arunachal Pradesh is not new and must be brought to their attention tactfully. The Government of India must assert the territorial integrity of India, and convey the feelings of Arunachal Pradesh people in a firm manner."
He further said in the letter, “In many instances in recent times, Chinese troops have tried to enter into Arunachal Pradesh and build roads, recently in Bising village of Tuting subdivision. Sir, you must protest against such incidents and ask China to respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India for a peaceful co-existence, as envisaged in historical Panchsheel agreement.”
A few months back, the Siang river which is the lifeline of our state turned black due to ill-intent projects and diversion of waters of Brahmaputra river by the Chinese authorities. The focus of the Government must be on negotiating a water treaty with China for the sustainable development of the region. It will help the north-eastern states of India to have their natural right of clean and continuous water, the MP said.
