Chinas expansionist outlook warrants vigilance, preparedness: Arunachal Governor
Itanagar, Sep 5 (IANS) Arunachal Pradesh Governor Lt Gen K.T. Parnaik (Retd) on Saturday cautioned that Chinas contemporary strategic outlook continues to reflect expansionist tendencies, as evident from its territorial claims and assertive posturing along disputed borders. Addressing the PIC-CCAS China Conference-2026 at the Pune International Centre (PIC), the Governor, referring to Chinas claims over Arunachal Pradesh and areas in Ladakh, stressed that India must remain vigilant, united and prepared to safeguard its territorial integrity and national interests. Drawing upon his extensive military and strategic experience, the Governor described China as Indias civilisation neighbour, a nation with which India shares centuries of cultural and historical interactions. Lt Gen Parnaik (Retd) highlighted the remarkable transformation of China under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party, noting its rise as a major economic, technological, and military power. He observed that China has systematically expanded its influence across Asia, Africa, and other regions through infrastructure investments, financial assistance, and initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). While acknowledging the scale of Chinas global outreach, the Governor stressed the need for countries in the region to carefully assess the strategic implications of such engagements. Focusing on Arunachal Pradesh, he underlined the states immense strategic significance as Indias eastern frontier. He stated that the people residing in border areas are vital stakeholders in national security and their presence, local knowledge, resilience, and commitment to the nation contribute significantly to border management and situational awareness. The Governor emphasised that empowered and prosperous border communities serve as the strongest guardians of the nations frontiers. He also highlighted the Government of Indias sustained efforts to strengthen infrastructure and connectivity in border regions through improved road networks, communication systems, and development initiatives. Such measures, he noted, not only enhance operational preparedness but also improve the quality of life of border residents, thereby reinforcing the nations security architecture. Underscoring the importance of informed strategic discourse, the Governor said that understanding Chinas evolving political, military, economic, and technological landscape is essential for shaping effective national policies. He called for greater collaboration among policymakers, scholars, strategic thinkers, and security experts to build a comprehensive understanding of emerging geopolitical realities and ensure that India remains prepared to meet future challenges with confidence and clarity. The conference featured insightful deliberations by eminent strategic thinkers and policymakers, including Jayadeva Ranade, President of CCAS; Dr Vijay Kelkar, Vice President of PIC; former Ambassador to Bhutan and China and former High Commissioner to Pakistan, Gautam Bambawale; and former Chief of Army Staff General Manoj Pande. Drawing upon their vast experience in diplomacy, governance, and national security, they shared valuable perspectives on Chinas evolving role, regional security dynamics, and the emerging geopolitical challenges and opportunities for India. The conference brought together leading scholars, policymakers, strategic analysts, and domain experts from across the country to deliberate on issues of profound national and regional significance. The discussions focused on key themes such as India-China bilateral relations and border dynamics, evolving military and security developments, emerging trade and economic trends, rapid advancements in technology, innovation, and the digital domain, and the changing geopolitical and strategic landscape of Asia.

Manoj Bajpayee praises Tukaram Mundhes dedication; says, Honesty makes you a celebrity
Manoj Bajpayee has praised Maharashtra food safety commissioner Tukaram Mundhe for his commitment to duty and public service. Mundhe has been receiving attention for his strict approach to food safety since taking charge of the department, with his inspections and action against businesses violating safety regulations drawing public notice. Speaking to ANI, Bajpayee reflected on how society perceives people who perform their responsibilities with honesty and dedication. According to the actor, it is surprising that individuals who simply carry out their assigned duties sincerely often end up becoming widely recognised. A police officer, or, lets say, Tukaram, is appointed to do a certain job. When he performs his duties with complete honesty and dedication, people find it surprising that he starts going viral. Have you realised this? Bajpayee said. The actor further pointed out that the popularity such officials receive says something about the current state of society. He added, This simply means that when someone is performing their duty with complete honesty, he becomes a celebrity. And that itself tells us where we, as a society, have reached. Mundhe, who recently took charge as commissioner of Maharashtras food safety body, has been conducting inspections and taking action against food establishments found to be flouting food safety rules. His strict working style has brought increased attention to the importance of maintaining food safety standards. Meanwhile, Bajpayee is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Last Man in Tower. Directed by Ben Rekhi and produced by Rana Daggubatis Spirit Media, the film is based on Aravind Adigas novel of the same name. The movie also stars Divya Dutta and Boman Irani. In the film, Bajpayee plays Masterji, a retired schoolteacher whose decision to oppose the wishes of his community creates tension among the residents of his building. The story explores the choices, relationships and conflicts that emerge when the residents are confronted with a major change. Last Man in Tower is scheduled to arrive in cinemas across India on September 11. Also Read : Manoj Bajpayee buys 4.45-acre land parcel in Punes Mulshi for Rs 1.37 crore: Report
