The Tawang Monastery, also known as the Gaden Namgyal Lhatse, has expressed resentment over China renaming different places in Arunachal Pradesh. "They don't have any right to rename places here. We strongly condemn this," monks at Asia's oldest monastery told News18. The monastery, home to 300 Buddhist monks and 17 gompas in the region, has a sociopolitical impact in Northeast India and Tibet.
