How a nervous China gears up aggressively on Dalai Lama

Firstpost  

The reason could be the forthcoming 90th birthday of the Tibetan leader, as in 2011, the Dalai Lama had announced that he would give details about his ‘return’ when he turns 90 years old China has been targeting the Dalai Lama, Tibet's spiritual leader, since 1959 after he was forced to flee his homeland. The Communist Party would like the Dalai Lama and his government-in-exile, known as the Central Tibetan Administration, to admit that Tibet has been part of the Motherland since ‘immemorial times’. They set up an organisation called ‘Pho Mimang Ranchen Chi Chog’, meaning ‘Tibetan Peoples Independent Organisation’, renounced the Sino-Tibetan Agreement of 1951, staged demonstrations to give vent to their anti-Chinese feelings, and demanded withdrawal of the Chinese from Tibet.” At no point in time were the people instigated by the Dalai Lama; on the contrary, the Tibetan leader was trying his best to find a modus vivendi with the Chinese generals to avoid bloodshed in the Land of Snows. In 2011, in a long statement speaking about his succession and the return of the 15th Dalai Lama, he had announced that he would give details about his ‘return’ when he turns 90 years old.
