CNN-IBN is carrying a PTI report which is quoting a Xinhua report:<\/p>\n

For the second time in less than a week, China has briefed India on the Tibet issue and said New Delhi has assured it that it would not tolerate any political anti-Beijing activities by Tibetans on the Indian territory.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi spoke over phone to his Indian counterpart Pranab Mukherjee and exchanged views on bilateral relations, explaining Beijing’s “principled stand” on the Dalai Lama issue, the state media said on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u00a0“Mukherjee said the Tibet Autonomous Region is part of China’s territory and India will never tolerate any political anti-China activities by Tibetans on the Indian territory,” official Xinhua<\/em> news agency reported.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The best thing that can be said about this is that Xinhua is cooking up fundaes or exaggerating wildly. But if it’s true, it shows the craven nature of the UPA administration.<\/p>\n

Since when is anti-anything<\/em>\u00a0politics a crime, leave alone anti-Beijing politics? Not tolerating military insurrections is understandable. Not tolerating anti-India politics also, though a free-speech libertarian like me would be cool with that too, as long as actual acts of treason weren’t being carried out. Hell, given the response so far to Naxalism, it seems as if the government doesn’t even care about anti-India civil war.<\/p>\n

But where does the Indian government get off carrying out Chinese repression of free speech on Indian soil?<\/p>\n

I hope somebody makes a stink about this. It should be interesting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
