Instead of defending Arunanchal to be part of India and get approval on Sikkim, India should look to recognize Taiwan, Tibet, and Uighir provinces as independent countries, and stake claim on Mt. Kailash and parts. Offense is the best defense.
This is the mistake Indians did, they gave approval to all chinese claims with bended knees and China never even acknowledged our claims.
Yes, this proposition will cause lot of commotion and ill feeling and may damage trade and many of the so called bridge/culture building initiatives. But when the hammer hits the iron, the chinese side will understand that for every action there will be an opposite and quadrupled reaction. Otherwise everybody will claim some part or other or may want to secede. We're already seeing how the philistine's and the arrogant's are using our religious symbols and icons with insolence, printing them from low down to crap.
