Tezpur tense over Army movements Correspondent TEZPUR, Oct 24 – Tension prevails among the local population of Arunachal Pradesh and the people here following reports of a border dispute between India and China. The proposed visit to Arunachal by the Dalai Lama on November 8 is also adding to the tension. Adding to this is the continuous movement of Army vehicles along the Tezpur to Arunachal road carrying heavy arms and ammunitions, since the past few days, which is leading the people to believe that another Indo-China war might be in the offing.
But, talking to this Correspondent, Defence PRO Col R Kalia allayed these fears and said that it was rather food and other rations which are being rushed to the border areas before snowfall begins, which is a routine procedure in the Army ahead of the winter season.
