But no response has come so far,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nAnjaw MLA and State\u2019s Women and Child Development Minister Dasanglu Pul confirmed that the duo went missing along the border with China while looking for medicinal herbs.<br \/>\n\u201cThe Chinese side has not yet acknowledged that the youths are in their custody. But I am told that they are still alive,\u201d she said.After the two went missing, Mr. Chikro lodged two complaints of missing persons at Hayuliang police station on October 9, 2022.<br \/>\nIt was mentioned in the complaints that \u201csome fellow villagers might have last seen them at border areas on August 24, 2022\u201d but since then there has been no sign of the whereabouts of the duo.<br \/>\nAccording to their Aadhaar cards, Mr. Tikro belongs to Doiliang and Mr. Manyu hails from Manyu Chiprogam of Anjaw district of Arunachal Pradesh. Mr. Tikro is unmarried while Mr. Manyu and his wife have two very young children.<br \/>\nAnjaw district Zila Parishad Chairman Soblem Pul said he has come to know that the local Army authorities raised the issue of the two men with the Chinese Army at the flag meetings held along the border.<br \/>\n\u201cI have no idea what was the response of the Chinese side at the flag meetings. The parents of the men keep telling us to do something. But we are helpless so far. We hope that they will return home safe and soon,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nThis is not the first time that residents of Arunachal Pradesh have gone missing along the border or been detained by China\u2019s PLA. However, in most cases, such people return home after a few days or weeks.<br \/>\nThis is for the first time that no whereabouts have been found of two missing persons for almost two years. In September 2020, the PLA allegedly abducted five youths from Arunachal Pradesh\u2019s Upper Subansiri district. The youths were released about a week later by the PLA.<br \/>\nOn January 18, 2022, a teenage boy, Miram Taron, was allegedly taken away by the Chinese forces from the Upper Siang district. Taron was handed over to the Indian side by the Chinese Army nine days later.<br \/>\nThe latest incident of the two missing cousins comes amid a continuing stand-off between the Indian Army and the PLA in eastern Ladakh since April 2020.<br \/>\nIndia shares a 3,400 km-long Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China from Ladakh to Arunachal Pradesh. India has repeatedly rejected China\u2019s territorial claims over Arunachal Pradesh, asserting that the State is an integral part of the country.<br \/>\nChina, which terms Arunachal Pradesh as South Tibet, routinely objects to Indian leaders\u2019 visits to the State to highlight its claims. Beijing has also named the area as Zangnan.<br \/>\nNew Delhi has also dismissed Beijing\u2019s move to assign \u201cinvented\u201d names to the area, saying it does not alter the reality.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21029\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21029\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21029\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-4.21.04-PM-300x169.png\" alt=\"Two Arunachal Pradesh Men Missing For Two Years;
