The complaint was submitted by BJP leaders of the Mukto Mandal led by ZPC Leki Gombu and ZPM Pema Tsering, in the presence of local representatives, including members of Panchayati Raj institutions, who expressed strong objection to what they described as an attempt to tarnish the image and reputation of the Chief Minister through unverified information.

According to the complainants, the report aired by Prag News contained allegations that were not supported by facts and had the potential to mislead the public. They maintained that the dissemination of such content could create unnecessary confusion and undermine public confidence in responsible journalism.

Condemning the publication of what they termed as baseless and misleading information, the BJP leaders stated that media organizations must adhere to the principles of accuracy, fairness, and factual reporting, particularly when dealing with matters involving public representatives and governance.

The delegation urged the police and concerned authorities to conduct a fair, impartial, and thorough investigation into the matter and take appropriate legal action against those found responsible for spreading alleged misinformation.

Speaking on the issue, party workers reiterated their unwavering support for Chief Minister Pema Khandu and asserted that attempts to malign his reputation through unsubstantiated reports would not affect the government's ongoing developmental efforts across the state.

Meanwhile, BJP units in Lumla and Tawang have also reportedly lodged separate FIRs at their respective police stations over the same issue, reflecting widespread concern among party members across the district.

Arunachal BJP Rejects Rumours of Leadership Change, Backs Chief Minister Pema Khandu

MON TAWANG VIGILANCE
TAWANG | June 01, 2026 |

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Arunachal Pradesh has strongly refuted reports suggesting a possible change in the state's leadership, describing such claims as unfounded and aimed at creating unnecessary confusion among the public.

Addressing reporters on Sunday, BJP Arunachal Pradesh Vice President and Namsai MLA Chau Zingnu Namchoom asserted that Chief Minister Pema Khandu continues to enjoy the confidence of both the party and the government. He said there was no question of the Chief Minister stepping down and dismissed recent speculation as "false and misleading."

Namchoom highlighted the progress achieved by Arunachal Pradesh in recent years, attributing the state's developmental momentum to the leadership provided by Chief Minister Pema Khandu and Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein. According to him, significant advancements have been made across various sectors, including infrastructure, connectivity, sports, youth development, and public welfare.

The BJP leader expressed concern over the circulation of what he termed "baseless rumours," stating that such narratives divert attention from the government's developmental agenda. He alleged that attempts were being made to spread misinformation and create political uncertainty despite the government's ongoing efforts to accelerate growth and improve public services.

Reiterating the party's support for the current leadership, Namchoom said the BJP remains focused on delivering development and fulfilling its commitments to the people of Arunachal Pradesh. He urged citizens not to be influenced by unverified reports and to rely on official statements regarding matters of governance.

The clarification comes amid speculation in certain quarters about a possible leadership reshuffle in the state. With the BJP leadership publicly backing the Chief Minister, the statement is expected to put to rest rumours surrounding the issue and reaffirm stability within the ruling party.

The BJP has maintained that its priority remains the continued development of Arunachal Pradesh and the successful implementation of projects aimed at strengthening the state's economic and social progress.
