India has strongly protested China's creation of two new counties in Aksai Chin, a region that has been under illegal Chinese occupation since the 1950s. The announcement, made by China in the Xinjiang province, has escalated tensions between the two nations, with India reaffirming its claim over the disputed territory. As China intensifies its actions in the region, India continues to reject these moves, calling them a violation of its sovereignty. In this video, we dive into the implications of China's recent action and India's firm response, examining the impact on bilateral relations and regional security.

00:00Creation of new countries will neither have a bearing on India's long-standing and consistent
00:06position regarding our sovereignty over the area, nor lend legitimacy to China's illegal
00:12and forcible occupation of the sea.
00:14We have lodged a solemn protest with the Chinese side through diplomatic channels.
00:19I have two questions, both related to China.
00:21One, there is a dam being built and it's being reported to be the world's biggest dam, largest
00:28dam for that matter, on the Chinese part of the Brahmaputra river, it will affect definitely
00:35India and Bangladesh.
00:36While China says that it won't affect that much to India and Bangladesh, but will India
00:41have a response to that?
00:42A, B, there are two new counties that have been created, one by China and one of those
00:48counties has a significant part of up-side-China into it.
00:52So what will be your response to that?
00:54Rishabh, your question on China.
00:59First about the dam that you referred to, we have seen the information released by Xinhua
01:07on 25th December 2024 regarding a hydropower project on the Yarlung-Sangpo river in the
01:16Tibet Autonomous Region of China as a lower riparian state with established user rights
01:23to the waters of the river.
01:25We have consistently expressed through expert level as well as diplomatic channels our views
01:32and concerns to the Chinese side over mega projects on rivers in their territory.
01:39These have been reiterated along with the need for transparency and consultation with
01:45downstream countries following the latest report.
01:49The Chinese side has been urged to ensure that the interests of downstream states of
01:54the Brahmaputra are not harmed by activities in upstream areas.
01:59We will continue to monitor and take necessary measures to protect our interests.
02:07You also had a question regarding the counties.
02:10We have seen the announcement pertaining to the establishment of two new counties in Hotan
02:16Prefecture of China.
02:18Parts of jurisdiction of these so-called counties fall in India's Union Territory of Ladakh.
02:27We have never accepted the illegal Chinese occupation of Indian territory in this area.
02:35Creation of new counties will neither have a bearing on India's long-standing and consistent
02:40position regarding our sovereignty over the area, nor lend legitimacy to China's illegal
02:46and forcible occupation of the same.
02:49We have lodged a solemn protest with the Chinese side through diplomatic channels on this matter.
