Dharamshala, 1st July: Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) members demonstrated against the Chinese Communist Party’s centenary celebrations in New Delhi’s Chinese Embassy on Thursday. Hundreds of Tibetans gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy to criticize the CCP’s harshness and brutality and show their opposition’s solidarity.
According to a TYC statement, as China commemorates the 100th anniversary of the founding of its Communist Party, the Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) strongly condemned and criticized the CCP’s very existence, its establishment at the cost of countless innocent lives, and its notorious history of human rights violations. The CCP in Tibet imposes strong restrictions and uses harsh means to suppress and imprison any form of protest. As a result of such aggressive behaviors, Tibetans inside Tibet have resorted to self-immolation.
According to the TYC statement, Chinese authorities in Tibet are preparing to tighten their grip on Tibetan Buddhism, with monasteries being barred from providing traditional monastic instruction, which is an important aspect of Tibetan Buddhism. Instead, monks and nuns are forced to participate in patriotic education and other political initiatives that are fundamentally opposed to Tibetan Buddhism’s essential precepts. In monastic establishments where monks are drawn to serve the Beijing government’s interests and are required to follow the CCP’s rigorous restrictions, political indoctrination has displaced Buddhist education. Aside from that, Tibet’s ecology has been damaged, minerals have been illegally mined and trafficked, and waterways have been polluted as a result of China’s occupation.
The Tibetans have been deprived of their basic rights as a result of the Chinese Communist Party’s brutal and repressive hardliner policies, and the human rights situation in Tibet continues to deteriorate and worsen with each passing year. As a result, Tibet has been listed as the least free area in the world for civil rights and political freedoms for the previous six years, according to the TYC statement. In Tibet, genocide and crimes against humanity are becoming commonplace, and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) continues to push for assimilation policies in Tibet, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia. Before their centennial celebrations, Chinese authorities have intensified surveillance and continue to imprison Tibetans indiscriminately.
