What is the number of places in Arunachal Pradesh that China has 'renamed'?
  • 9
  • 17
  • 13
  • 11
Answer- D
China's Ministry of Civil Affairs has released a catalogue of standardized names for 11 areas in Arunachal Pradesh, which they refer to as "Zangnan" or the southern region of Tibet, using Chinese, Tibetan, and pinyin characters.

This action is perceived as an effort by China to assert its territorial claim over the Indian state, in accordance with their policies on geographic nomenclature.
