No one can snatch Arunachal Pradesh: Pranab

CNN-IBN

New Delhi: External Affairs Minister, Pranab Mukherjee has once again said that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India.

Speaking at the Buddhist Mahotsav festival at the Tawang Monastry, Mukherji said there was no dispute over Arunachal Pradesh.

The state is an integral part of India and will continue to remain so, reiterated the minister.

No power on earth can snatch it, he added.

The Chinese have been making territorial claims over Arunachal Pradesh and a recent remark by Mukherji when he allegedly said that China is a threat to India may not have helped India's cause.

The Chinese have objected to these remarks made by Mukherji.
