Despite India's opposition, China settled villages in Arunachal Pradesh and Doklama

New Delhi, Dt
China, which has been negotiating peace with India, has maintained a tense situation on the border by repeatedly blocking the LAC. Amid India's opposition, China has continued its campaign to settle villages along the Arunachal border. It has been revealed in some more satellite images that he has settled one more village near the Arunachal border in the last one and a half years. Not only that, in one year, China has built not one but four villages in the disputed Doklam area on the border with Bhutan. On the other hand, China has indicated its readiness to hold the 12th round of military talks in the next few days to maintain peace on the eastern Ladakh border.

Following the Pentagon's report that China had set up a village in Arunachal Pradesh on the 18th of 18th December, some new satellite images showed that the village was 5 km away. Far away, China has built another village of 50 houses. According to satellite images, the village was not here in 2013, but a year later, 50 houses have been built here. The Chinese village in Shi-Yomi district of Arunachal Pradesh was built between March 2015 and February 2021. However, satellite images did not specify whether the village was inhabited by Chinese nationals.

This second village in China is about 6 km from the Indian border. The area is between the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and the international border. India has always claimed the area as its own. "The area shown in the satellite images is in the territory of China north of the LAC," the Indian military said after the new satellite images were revealed.

The existence of this new Chinese village is also supported by images from Maxer Technologies and Planet Labs, two of the world's leading companies providing satellite imagery. In these pictures of Arunachal Pradesh's Shi-Yomi district, not only many buildings are seen, but also the Chinese flag is painted on the roof of one of the buildings. The building is so large in size that it is clearly visible even in satellite images. China seems to be asserting its claim to the area through this huge flag.
The exact location of the new village is clearly indicated by the Government of India's online map service Bharat Maps. These digital maps of India are prepared under the supervision of Surveyor General of India, these maps also confirm that the location is within the Indian border. Indian experts confirm that the village seen in the satellite images is seven km from the international border. Is inside. This is evidenced by the digital maps of India Maps based on all the official maps of India's borders displayed by the Surveyor General of India.
Surprisingly, a picture of the village was published by the Chinese news agency Xinhua in July this year. At the time, Chinese President Xi Jinping toured the area on the border with Arunachal Pradesh and inspected a strategically important new railway line. The new village is only 3 km from the airport where Jinping landed. Is far away. Brahma Chelani, India's leading strategic expert on China, said the new village showed how China was slowly incorporating India's Himalayan borders. China has also given the village a Chinese name, while the village is an area where hardly anyone speaks Chinese.

At one time there was a situation of military conflict between India and China just to pave the way for Doklama and China had to retreat after India's tough stance, but now China has strengthened its position in Doklama. According to the latest satellite images, China has built four villages near Doklam in the disputed area with Bhutan between 2020-21. This Chinese village is also dangerous for India's borders.
