In his sharpest comments yet, the Dalai Lama compared China’s actions in Tibet to the regime of Cambodian dictator Pol Pot, who was held responsible for the death of more than a million Cambodians in the 1970s. “Tibet has had very good relations with China for thousands of years. In the run-up to his visit, the Chinese government had issued several direct threats to India. On whether his visit to Tawang would affect India-China ties, he said: “We will have to wait and see. But it is normal for China to give a political colour to my spiritual visits.” (With PTI)
