March to Tibet Supply Trucks confiscated: Fear of food supply shortage imminent
I would think India would want the Tibetan issue resolved because they apparently don’t like the Tibetan refugees in their country. If this were the case then why would they want to stop the March to Tibet and arrest the Tibetans? The only way this will be resolved is by these types of protests all over because China continues to cover up what they are doing to the Tibetan people and the Tibetan country.
These problems would not be happening if China’s fascist communist government had not confiscated the Tibetan country. What the heck, they are Tibetan people not Chinese, and colonialism is so 19th century. You can’t become an alleged “superpower” by colonialism in the 20th – 21st century.
March to Tibet Supply Trucks confiscated: Fear of food supply shortage imminent
Almost 200kms from the Indo-Tibet border, the marchers are however determined to continue with their march and have made their decision clear to the authorities that they would be willing to forego on food for their resolve in realizing what they set out to achieve.“In the past months, the March to Tibet has grown into a nonviolent force of 300 determined marchers and even now many Tibetans are on the move to join us,” said Sherab Woeser, a coordinator of the March to Tibet. “The Indian authorities are escalating the situation in their efforts to stop the march, with many hundreds of police stationed along the road, but the 300 marchers remain committed to returning to Tibet.”

On May 27 an estimated force of 1000 police blocked the camp entrance and ordered the marchers to turn back or risk being arrested. Crossing a dry riverbed, the marchers peacefully resorted to a Gandhian style sit-in. They sang the Tibetan National Anthem and chanted prayers for an hour before the police retreated and eventually left the campsite. The same scenario occurred again on May 28. The marchers will continue with their sit-in until the six leaders are released.
