The Indian Army and Indo‑Tibetan Border Police continue to patrol the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Arunachal Pradesh as face‑offs with the Chinese Army have persisted since late July. In response, the ITBP has approved new border‑infrastructure projects.
Earlier in February, the Cabinet Committee on Security chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi cleared the third phase of the Indo‑China Border Roads (ICBR‑III) scheme, which will construct up to 26 roads along the LAC in Arunachal Pradesh, officials told The Hindu. The new roads are intended to improve logistics and strengthen India’s defensive posture along the contested frontier.

अरुणाचल प्रदेशमा चीन सीमा क्षेत्रमा केन्द्रले किन नयाँ पूर्वाधार निर्माणलाई स्वीकृति दियो | व्याख्या
जुलाईको अन्त्यदेखि चिनियाँ सेनासँग झडप जारी रहेकाले भारतीय सेना र इन्डो-तिब्बती सीमा प्रहरी (आईटीबीपी) ले अरुणाचल प्रदेशमा वास्तविक नियन्त्रण रेखा (एलएसी) मा निरन्तर गस्ती गरिरहेका छन्। यसको प्रतिक्रियास्वरूप, आईटीबीपीले नयाँ सीमा-पूर्वाधार परियोजनाहरूलाई स्वीकृति दिएको छ। यसअघि फेब्रुअरीमा, प्रधानमन्त्री नरेन्द्र मोदीको अध्यक्षतामा बसेको सुरक्षासम्बन्धी मन्त्रिपरिषद् समितिले इन्डो-चीन सीमा सडक (आईसीबीआर-३) योजनाको तेस्रो चरणलाई स्वीकृति दिएको थियो, जसअन्तर्गत अरुणाचल प्रदेशको एलएसी क्षेत्रमा २६ वटासम्म सडक निर्माण गरिनेछ, अधिकारीहरूले द हिन्दूलाई बताएका छन्। यी नयाँ सडकहरूको उद्देश्य रसद आपूर्तिमा सुधार गर्नु र विवादित सीमा क्षेत्रमा भारतको रक्षात्मक अवस्थालाई बलियो बनाउनु हो।
