India on Thursday hit out at China over Arunachal Pradesh.

New Delhi: India on Thursday hit out at China for giving Chinese names to some parts of Arunachal Pradesh.

India categorically said that assigning invented names to towns of the neighbour does not make illegal territorial claims legal.

External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Gopal Baglay also asserted that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India.

China had yesterday announced that it has "standardised" official names for six places in the northeastern state and termed the provocative move as a "legitimate action".

The Chinese move came days after Beijing lodged strong protests with India over the Dalai Lama's visit to the frontier state.
