Beijing: China’s largest online travel agency Ctrip has removed from its platform products offering travel and accommodation services to Arunachal Pradesh (AP) following objections raised by Chinese netizens.
China claims AP as part of southern Tibet. India firmly maintains that the state is integral and inalienable part of the country.
Ctrip.com International Limited, a Chinese provider of global travel services including travel and hotel accommodation, is currently regarded as the largest online travel agency in China.
It removed the relevant products from its platform after ‘We-media’ exposed screenshots of Ctrip’s webpage and phone application allegedly showing products “calling South Tibet as Arunachal Pradesh”, state-run Global Times reported on Thursday. (PTI)
