This reaction came after BJP MP Tapir Gao had claimed that China has built a 100-house village in the “disputed area” deep into Arunachal Pradesh.
Senior Congress leader and former Finance Minister P Chidambaram demanded answers from the government on the issue in his series of tweets .
He said if the allegation made out by the BJP MP is true, will the government again give a clean chit to China or will blame the previous governments for it.
“Mr Tapir Gao MP, belonging to BJP, has alleged that deep into Arunachal Pradesh, in a ‘disputed area’ within Indian territory, the Chinese have built a 100-house village, a bazaar and a two-lane road in the last year.
“If this is true, it is clear that the Chinese have altered the status quo by converting a disputed area into a permanent settlement of Chinese nationals. What has the government to say about these startling facts,” he had said on Twitter.

Will the government give another clean chit to China? Or will the government give a convoluted explanation blaming previous governments?
