The Indian Army hosted a two-day seminar titled 'Arunachal Pradesh — India Centric Geospace' in Assam's Dibrugarh district, an official release said on Thursday.
The two-day seminar, which began on Wednesday at Dinjan Military Station, was attended by senior military officials, policymakers and scholars.
It provided valuable insights into the region's geopolitical, economic and development aspects, it added.
Leading scholar and commentator on transboundary rivers, climate change and the Arctic, Uttam Kumar Sinha, emphasised the need for India to enhance its river management capabilities independently rather than reacting to China's activities.
He stressed a scientific, sustainable and people-centric approach to infrastructure development.
