India's External Affairs Minister rejected China's claim on Arunachal Pradesh. S. Jaishankar slammed Beijing after it released a new name list for places in the northeastern state of India. Jaishankar said, "Arunachal Pradesh was, is, and will always be a state of India." This comes after the Chinese Ministry of Civil Affairs released the fourth list of changed names in Arunachal Pradesh, which it calls "Zangnan" and a part of south Tibet.
