About Tawang
History:
During the Shimla Summit of 1914, Tibet and British India signed an agreement defining their common border in the Assam Himalayan region, known as the McMahon Line. With this agreement, Tibet released several hundred square miles of its territory, including Tawang, to the British India. Originally, the Tawang district was a subdivision of the West Kamen district until October 5, 1984. The district is located in most of Arunachal Pradesh, at the western end of a ridge that runs along the western part of the town of Tawan. A popular interpretation is that the name "Tawan" was given by his Holiness Melara Maro Dregazzo. On October 6, 1984, this Tawan Subdivision became a full-fledged district separated from the West Kamen district of Arunachal Pradesh.
