Sikkim MP Calls for 'Tibet Border' Label Instead of 'China Border' in Rajya Sabha

Sikkim MP Dorjee Tshering Lepcha urged the central government to use "Tibet border" instead of "China border" during the Rajya Sabha session on July 30. He argued that the 1,400-kilometer stretch from Leh, Ladakh, and Arunachal to Sikkim borders Tibet more accurately. Lepcha also highlighted the stark contrast in development between the Chinese and Indian sides of the border, with the Chinese side having more villages and infrastructure, while the Indian side remains largely undeveloped. He called for a comprehensive review and action to address these disparities.
