Dalai Lama On Arunachal

China said today that the recent visit of the Dalai Lama to Arunachal Pradesh has had a "negative impact" on China-India ties and New Delhi should not use the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader to "undermine" Beijing's interests.

The Dalai Lama today accused China of spreading false information about his trip to a monastery in Arunachal Pradesh that drew protests from Beijing. "People have the wrong information," the 81-year-old told reporters in Tawang where he took shelter on his escape from Tibet in 1959.

China should not hesitate to answer "blows with blows" as India has chosen to play dirty by allowing the Dalai Lama to visit Arunachal Pradesh, the Chinese official media said on Thursday. Two English newspapers -- China Daily and Global Times -- launched a scathing attack on India after Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju made it clear to Chin...

Chief Minister Pema Khandu on Wednesday said China has no business telling India what to do with regard to the Dalai Lama's movement in the country.

The Chinese have fallen right into Modi's trap. They got increasingly hot and bothered each time the Dalai Lama came into the public eye. As he prepares to travel to Tawang from Bomdila, Beijing has even threatened a downgrading of the bilateral India-China relationship.

Perhaps for the first time in his 81 years - barring his escape from Lhasa to Tawang and on to Dharmsala - the Dalai Lama has undertaken a 500 km long road trip to reach his destination.

Enraged by the Dalai Lama's visit to Arunachal Pradesh, China has said that the trip has "severely damaged China-India relations." Hours before China's Foreign Ministry issued this statement, China's official state media published an article in which it wrote, "Unlike his predecessors, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi seems to have taken a diff...

India has warned China against creating "an artificial controversy" around the Dalai Lama's visit to Arunachal Pradesh, pointing out that the exiled 81-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader has visited the north-eastern state in the past, and that "no additional colour should be ascribed to his religious and spiritual activities and visits to various s...

The Tibetan spiritual leader-in-exile the 14th Dalai Lama- Nobel Laureate Tenzin Gyatso- reached Guwahati on Saturday to kick start his two week-long visit to Assam and Arunachal Pradesh amid strong objection by China and an appeal by banned group United Liberation Front of Assam or ULFA (I) to not say anything against China during his trip.

For the second time in a month, China today warned India of "serious damage" to bilateral ties if it allows the Dalai Lama to visit Arunachal Pradesh and asked New Delhi to honour its "political pledges" on the Tibet issue. "We are seriously concerned about the news. On the eastern section of the , China's position is clear and consistent," Chinese...

Five days before the Dalai Lama's trip to Arunachal Pradesh, the Chinese Consul General in Kolkata strongly repeated China's position on the visit. "India must cancel the visit," said Ma Zahnwu at a press meet in Kolkata.

A faction of the banned terror group of Assam, ULFA, has weighed in on the controversy over Dalai Lama's proposed visit to Arunachal Pradesh, with a message that leans to the Chinese side. The ULFA faction led by Paresh Baruah - who had been reportedly hiding in China -- insists that the 81-year-old spiritual leader should mind what he says and not...

China's invitation to Hurriyat leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq for a visit is "unrelated" to India allowing the Dalai Lama to tour Arunachal Pradesh, Chinese scholars said on Monday.

China says it is "strongly dissatisfied" with India over the Dalai Lama's visit to Arunachal Pradesh, a Chinese news agency reported on Tuesday.

"Be 21st Century Buddhists" - the message that the Dalai Lama preached on Monday in Tawang, with thousands gathered to see him.
