Arunachal groups urge Centre to act after former ITBP chief confirms Chinese incursions.

Local tribal organisations in Arunachal Pradesh have urged the Centre to address the ground reality following former Indo-Tibetan Border Police chief <b>Shatrujeet Singh Kapoor</b>'s revelation regarding face-offs with Chinese forces. Community leaders stated that the People's Liberation Army has gradually expanded into Indian territory near Taksing in the Upper Subansiri district. The former ITBP chief disclosed that Indian and Chinese forces experienced face-offs at multiple locations in Arunachal Pradesh. Local groups previously claimed that Chinese forces established roads, bridges, and military camps in areas traditionally used for grazing and trade, though state and central authorities earlier rejected these reports. The Ministry of External Affairs stated that border situations are occasionally disturbed when Chinese forces diverge from established patrolling patterns.
