Monastery in Arunachal Pradesh

Arunachal Pradesh is a thinly populated hilly tract lying on the northeast extremity of India comprising roughly 83,573 square kilometres. Pradesh is known to be rich in flora, fauna, power and mineral potential. Previously this region was known as the North-East Frontier Agency (NEFA) and constituted a part of the state of Assam. Arunachal Pradesh became an independent state on 20th February 1987. It is bounded by independent countries on the three sides and Assam and Nagaland in the south. The long international border comprises Bhutan on its west (160 km), the Tibet region of China on its northern and northeast border (1080 km) and Myanmar (formerly Burma (440km) on the eastern edge.
It borders the states of Assam and Nagaland to the south and shares international borders with Burma in the east, Bhutan in the west, and the People's Republic of China in the north. The majority of the territory is claimed by the People's Republic of China as part of South Tibet. The northern border of Arunachal Pradesh reflects the McMahon Line, a controversial 1914 treaty between the United Kingdom and a Tibetan government, which was never accepted by the Chinese government, and not enforced by the Indian government until 1950. Itanagar is the capital of the state.
Arunachal Pradesh means "land of the dawn-lit mountains" in Sanskrit. It is also known as the "land of the rising sun" ("Pradesh" means "state" or "region") in reference to its position as the easternmost state of India. Most of the people native to and/or living in Arunachal Pradesh are of Tibeto-Burman origin. A large and increasing number of migrants have reached Arunachal Pradesh from many other parts of India. However, no reliable population count of the migrant population has been conducted, and percentage estimates of the total population accordingly vary widely. Part of the famous Ledo Burma Road, which was a lifeline to China during World War II, passes through the eastern part of the state.
