Ladakh BJP MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal said the government has brought in programmes like "Vibrant Village" to solve issues that people living in forward areas face.
Amid the standoff between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), the centre on Monday said till the time the border between the two neighbours is not demarcated, issues related to grazing of livestock would keep coming up.
"The border is not demarcated. Since the border is not demarcated, some issues came up in the past and some are surfacing now. And they will keep on surfacing," Ladakh BJP MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal told reporters when asked about reports of China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) stopping Indian villagers from taking their livestock to forward areas in Ladakh for grazing.
Mr Namgyal said the government has brought in programmes like "Vibrant Village" to solve issues that people living in forward areas face.
"The Modi government is developing grazing land, road connectivity and telecommunication facilities are being enhanced so that people don't have to migrate from those areas," Mr Namgyal added.
