The story is about a slogan, “America is a Paper Tiger”. We students had to march often in streets waving red flags and shouting slogans like “We support the people of Chaoxian, Imperialist America is a paper tiger, Victory to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA)” and so on. At that time, we had no idea what ‘Chaoxian’ (Korea in Chinese) meant and where America was in the world either. But we knew the tiger, a symbol of power we often see in Tibetan prayer flags. What the Chinese meant was that America is like a Tiger drawn on a piece of paper that looks fearful – but it is just an image that has no real strength.

The decision of the Government of India not to attend the opening or the closing ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, in response to China’s decision to make a regimental commander of the People’s Liberation Army, who suffered severe injury during the Gulwan clash, a torchbearer at the event, is a clear signal that India has finally decided to confront China once for all.

In the year 1950-51, when China entered  Tibet and ruthlessly suppressed the Tibetan protesters, the Government of India virtually kept quiet. Even then, several experts in India suggested to the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to examine the feasibility of stopping China’s aggression of Tibet and Nehru was forewarned that the next target of China could be India.

Prime Minister of India Narendra  Modi inaugurated the Kushinagar international airport in Uttar Pradesh, which would connect the key Buddhist pilgrimage sites in India. 

It is now more than six decades since China forcibly occupied Tibet by sending its military and massacred the protesting Tibetans mercilessly. The Dalai Lama and his followers were left with no alternative other than leaving Tibet and China has been taking stern steps to consolidate its hold over the Tibetan region.  It has been systematically taking measures to dilute the Tibetan race by settling native Chinese in Tibet and brainwashing the present generation of Tibetans who have not seen the Dalai Lama.  China is trying to rewrite the history of Tibet.

On 23rd May, Beijing completes 70 years of colonial occupation and rigid communist rule of China. It was on 23rd May 1951 when the Dalai Lama, the ruler and supreme spiritual leader of Tibet, heard a dramatic broadcast on ‘Radio Peking’ which announced that Tibet had signed a “17-Point Agreement” with China under which Tibet had agreed to become a part of China. Amidst shouts of self-congratulation the Radio claimed that the ‘Agreement’ had been signed between the ‘Central People’s Government’ of China and the Tibetan delegates ‘with full powers of the Local Government of Tibet’.
