New Delhi, Sep 17 (PTI) Asserting that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India, External Affairs Minister S M Krishna has said integrity of country's sovereignty will certainly have to be respected by China.
The minister said that both India and China are "mature" and "powerful" neighbours who needs to have trust and faith in each other.
Asked about China's objection to Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama's proposed visit to Arunachal Pradesh in November and its efforts to stop Asian Development Bank from funding Indian projects in the state, Krishna said India's stand is very clear "Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India".
China has territorial claim over Arunachal Pradesh and its hackles are raised every time the Dalai Lama wants to visit that state.
"China has its own perception. India has a very clear perception about Arunachal Pradesh.
