China begins mining operations near Arunachal border

At the moment, it is clear from his stance and activities that China is strengthening its hold on the border, which can be worrisome for India. China has started a massive mining operation in the Tibetan area adjacent to the border of Arunachal Pradesh.

China has begun its efforts to increase its influence and control over the border areas. On Sunday, South China Morning Post informed about it.

China is already working to remove about 60 billion dollars of gold, silver and other minerals in Lunge County adjacent to Arunachal. This time China is doing mining operations in its territory adjacent to the border, due to which there is less chance of interfering with India.

The border dispute remained an important issue even during the recent informal China visit of PM Modi. During this time, discussions were taken between Chinese President Xi Jinping and PM Modi to take steps on better coordination with the border.

At the same time, China stakes its claim in 90,000 square kilometers of Arunachal Pradesh. It calls Arunachal Pradesh South Tibet. South China Morning Post, quoting experts, said that China has started mining operations on a broad scale on the lines of the disputed South China Sea, whose purpose is to strengthen its claim in the border areas. China initially made a minor start in the name of extracting minerals, but later also made military bases there.

Recently Chinese President Xi Jinping has cleared his position on the border dispute. He said that they would not leave an inch of land. Their army is ready to fight against for it.

It is known that in many countries other than China, in the South China Sea, they stake their claim. America and India are also opposing China’s control in the South China Sea. The purpose of China’s activities in Lunge area is being seen as a part of the effort to control the border.
