On February 20, 1987, Arunachal Pradesh, one of India’s northeastern states, became a fully-fledged state.
Formerly known as the North-East Frontier Agency (NEFA), it was created from that territory. The state’s nickname is “Land of the Rising Sun.”
Arunachal Pradesh is the largest of the seven sister states of Northeast India in terms of land area.
Arunachal Pradesh shares international borders with Bhutan in the west, Myanmar in the east, and a disputed border with China at the McMahon Line in the north.
