evidence: In the new map, China has made territorial claims on a small region in Russia, the Aksai Chin Region in India’s Arunachal Pradesh, the South China Sea and has also claimed Taiwan by creating a U-shaped ten-dash line on its map claiming around 90% of the South China Sea region whose territorial jurisdiction resides with the Philippines, Malaysia, and Vietnam. The map contains altered names for multiple locations within these regions. Most of the territories mentioned above are either disputed or have been denounced as illegal Chinese intervention by various international tribunals, NGOs, and states. The Aksai Chin Region has been part of India since 1947. After the Indo-China war in 1962, there has been intervention in the territory by the intrusion of Chinese soldiers, and the setting up of military camps including hangers and runways. India has always retaliated against such intervention by China through the release of maps and other means. Right from the decline of the Qing Dynasty to the 1913 Shimla Treaty and the McMahon Line being the de facto border, the history of territorial claims over Aksai Chin has been full of conflicts. China’s recent claim to this territory through the release of its official map is unjustified.
