"I was hurt when I heard about the December 9 incident. I condemn this. If PLA continues doing such things in the future, India-China relations will suffer," he said in a video message.
BJP MP from Arunachal Pradesh Tapir Gao said "border incidents" such as the one that happened between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Tawang sector will hamper relations between the two countries.
Indian and Chinese troops clashed along the LAC in the Tawang sector and the face-off resulted in "minor injuries to a few personnel from both sides", the Indian Army said.

The clash near Yangtse along the LAC in the sensitive sector took place last Friday amid the over 30-month border standoff between the two sides in eastern Ladakh.
"I was hurt when I heard about the December 9 incident. I condemn this. If PLA continues doing such things in the future, India-China relations will suffer," he said in a video message on December 12.
Such border incidents are bad for the relations between the two countries. Governments of India and China should work on making the relations better, said Mr. Gao, the Lok Sabha MP from the Arunachal East constituency.
