'Vain and preposterous': India rejects China renaming places in Arunachal
In April, China released the fourth list announcing Chinese and Tibetan names for 30 locations in Arunachal Pradesh. The new names will reportedly be reflected on official Chinese maps later this year read more India's External Affairs on Wednesday rejected China's attempt to rename 30 places in Arunachal Pradesh last month, saying that such practices 'will not alter the reality'. In April, China released the fourth list announcing Chinese and Tibetan names for 30 locations in Arunachal Pradesh. The new names will reportedly be reflected on official Chinese maps later this year. The MEA said in a statement, 'We have noticed that #China has persisted with its vain and preposterous attempts to name places in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. Consistent with our principled position, we reject such attempts categorically. Creative naming will not alter the undeniable reality that Arunachal Pradesh was, is, and will always remain an integral and inalienable part of India.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD China renames locations in AP Last month's attempt was the fourth time Beijing has asserted its dominance over the Indian state despite New Delhi's numerous rejections of renaming places. China claims Arunachal's southern part as its own, which it calls Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR), called 'zagnan'. The tactic of renaming locations in Arunachal has been practised by Beijing for a long time now. In 2024, the state-run Global Times quoted a government notice saying, 'Set to take effect from May 1, 2024, the implementation measures stipulate in Article 13 that 'place names in foreign languages that may harm China's territorial claims and sovereignty rights shall not be directly quoted or translated without authorisation'.' On April 13, 2017, a day after Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama concluded a high-profile nine-day visit to Arunachal Pradesh, China renamed several locations in the region. Beijing refers to the Dalai Lama as a separatist and accuses him of seeking to establish an independent Tibetan state. Global Times' X account withheld The X handle of Global Times was suspended in India on Wednesday. This comes just days after the Indian Embassy in China issued a strong warning to the media outlet, urging it to verify facts before sharing information on social media. The Embassy said, 'Dear Global Timesnews, we would recommend you verify your facts and cross-examine your sources before pushing out this kind of disinformation.'

Elon Musk loves free speech - as long as he agrees with it
The X owner is shutting down the accounts of opposition activists in Turkey and suing politicians in the US Rats in a Sack Elon Musk steps off Air Force One upon arrival at Morristown Municipal Airport in Morristown, New Jersey. Photo: BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP via Getty Images When Trump right-hand man and walking midlife crisis Elon Musk set in motion his purchase of the social media platform then known as Twitter, he tried to portray himself as the world's leading champion of free speech. Indeed, his first post after making a $44 billion offer was: 'Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy.' That free speech only extends so far though – and woe betide you if you use the rebranded X to criticise the strongman authoritarians Musk and his boss are so fond of. Last week Musk's platform shut down the accounts of a number of opposition activists in Turkey supportive of the riots triggered by the arrest of Ekrem İmamoğlu, mayor of Istanbul. The majority of the suspended accounts belonged to grassroots activists with followers in the low tens of thousands who shared the locations of protests, usually at or near universities. Many have been fully suspended, while others appear to be restricted only within the country. According to X's own transparency report, it complied with 86% of requests made by Turkey's authoritarian government to take down posts in the second half of 2024. Away from social media, Musk is busying himself by threatening to sue Kamala Harris's running mate Tim Walz for accurately claiming Musk made a Nazi salute at Donald Trump's inauguration, calling for a boycott of Wikipedia after his page was updated to include mention of an 'alleged Nazi salute' and now says he will take legal action against Democrat politician Jamaal Bowman, who called Musk a 'Nazi' and a 'thief' during a recent appearance on CNN. It's clear that Elon loves free speech – as long as he agrees with it! 24 March 2025 2:02 PM Facebook Twitter Linked In Reddit Matt Goodwin's fall into the abyss The secret at the heart of Severance The real crisis in young men A new front in the Brexiteers' war on reality The hard right will tear itself apart
