China, accused of heavy-handed repression of the Tibetan population, insists that it has brought greater freedoms and prosperity to the region.
The Dalai Lama has been living in exile since China seized control of Tibet.
This week marks the 60th anniversary of a failed uprising which led to Tibet’s Buddhist spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, fleeing into exile in India. “Tibetan people have gratitude in their hearts. They are grateful to the Communist Party for bringing them a happy life.” China had reached out to the Dalai Lama in 2002 to negotiate but after nine rounds of dialogue that lasted through till 2010, many believed that Beijing was intentionally dragging on pointless talks, hoping international pressure over Tibet would end with the passing of the Dalai Lama.Many Tibetan Buddhists fear Beijing may seek to impose their choice of a spiritual leader after the Dalai Lama’s death.
