- On August 7, the Indian government updated Survey of India maps with standardised names for 27 culturally, historically and strategically significant locations in Arunachal Pradesh, without making a new territorial claim.
- The list covers 21 settlements or land areas, four mountain passes, the high-altitude Sambho Sarovar lake and the Sher-e-Thapa Memorial.
- Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on August 10 that Beijing does not recognise Arunachal Pradesh, considers India’s naming move invalid and claims the region as Zangnan.
- The publication came after the 36th border-affairs working mechanism meeting on August 6 and the resumption of border trade through Nathu La and Shipki La on August 1.
India's move of attempting to replace names long been used by China with its so-called 'standard names' is illegal, null and void. Zangnan region is China's territory.— Guo Jiakun, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, in a statement on August 10, responding to India's map update for Arunachal Pradesh.

- The Ministry of Home Affairs said on Friday, August 7, 2026, that the Indian government, in consultation with Arunachal Pradesh's government, had identified 27 places and features under standard names on official Survey of India maps.
- The entries include Long Ju along the Line of Actual Control, Maja village in Upper Subansiri district, Thag La pass and Jairampur, a logistics hub in Changlang district.
- Chief Minister Pema Khandu rejected reports of a Chinese incursion that day but said he would speak with local residents and the Indian Army about the allegations.
- China released standardized-name lists for places in Arunachal Pradesh with six entries in 2017, 15 in 2021, 11 in 2023 and 30 in 2024, while India rejects China's claim and the renaming efforts.
Consistent with our principled position, we reject such attempts categorically. Creative naming will not alter the undeniable reality that Arunachal Pradesh was, is, and will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India.— Statement by India's Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in response to China's renaming attempts in Arunachal Pradesh; 2025
