From False Promises to Forced Control: 60 Years of the TAR
September 9, 2025 marks 60 years since China formally established the so-called “Tibet Autonomous Region” (TAR), which covers only about half of Tibet. Chinese state media celebrates, but Tibetans have little to rejoice about.
The Lost Tibetan Kingdom of Guge and Its Sacred Bond with...
The Lost Tibetan Guge Kingdom was no ordinary polity. It was a spiritual citadel, a cradle of renaissance, and a forgotten bridge between Tibet, India, and the sacred heart of the Himalayas. Towering from the windswept cliffs of western Tibet, Guge once served Gang Rinpoche (Mount Kailash) not merely as a neighbor, but as its steward and protector.
Remembering Tiananmen Square: A Nation’s Wound That Never Healed
Thirty-five years ago, on June 4, 1989, Beijing’s Tiananmen Square became the site of a state-sanctioned massacre. What began as a peaceful student-led movement calling for democracy, transparency, and basic freedoms ended in bloodshed under the treads of Chinese tanks and the gunfire of the People’s Liberation Army.
30 Years Of Silence: The Abduction Of The 11th Panchen Lama...
On May 17, 1995, the Chinese government abducted a six-year-old Tibetan boy, Gedhun Choekyi Nyima, just three days after His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama officially recognized him as the 11th Panchen Lama—the second-highest spiritual authority in Tibetan Buddhism. Since that day, he has not been seen in public. Tomorrow marks 30 years of his disappearance, and still, the world waits for answers.
The Myth of “Serf Liberation”: Why Tibetans Fled China’s “Freedom”
If China truly "liberated" Tibetans, one must ask why so many chose to flee into exile rather than embrace their so-called freedom. In 1959, following the suppression of the Lhasa Uprising, the Dalai Lama and tens of thousands of Tibetans escaped to India, fearing persecution. This was not the action of a people freed from oppression, but of a nation resisting foreign domination.
NSA Ajit Doval to Visit Beijing: Why India Must Not Mistake...
Shaksgam shows the limits of that progress. It proves that even when one corner of the relationship is being cooled, another is being heated sometimes deliberately, sometimes opportunistically, always with the same outcome: India is kept reacting, never simply building.
For ordinary Indians, this isn’t about abstract mistrust. It is about the soldier who stands through a Ladakh night where the wind can kill. It is about families who still carry 2020 in their bones. It is about Ladakhi communities watching maps and roads and “corridors” tighten around them. It is about the quiet fear that the next “incident” will again arrive after a round of talks that promised calm.
The Embassy Under the City: China’s London Super-Embassy and the Battle...
What the public should understand is simple and human: Chinese Super Embassy isn’t only about concrete. It’s about whether the city that once built walls to keep invaders out is now building something that makes its own people feel watched residents who fear displacement, dissidents who fear intimidation, and citizens who fear the quiet theft of data that keeps modern Britain alive.
China’s Electrification Push: Batteries, Power, and the Price Tibet Is Paying
China’s electrification narrative is built on a simple premise: cut reliance on fossil fuels by turning everything electric cars, buses, logistics fleets, data centres, robots, AI infrastructure, and grid storage. In 2025, global electric vehicle sales surpassed 20 million units, driven overwhelmingly by China, which accounted for around 70 % of global EV production and saw more than half of all new car sales domestically come from electric or plug-in hybrid models. This is not a tentative shift it is a systemic transformation of transportation and industry.
