China says India's move to identify 27 places in Arunachal with standard names is 'illegal, null and void'
China declared India's official map naming of Arunachal Pradesh places as void. Beijing asserts that the Zangnan region, which is Arunachal Pradesh, belongs to China. India formally identified twenty-seven places and features by their standard names on its map. China has periodically released its own names for locations in the state since 2017. New Delhi consistently rejects China's renaming actions as preposterous and without merit.
