In its latest move to erase minority cultures and assert dominance over its frontier regions, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) appears to be rebranding...

The historical analysis of Tibet during the Qing Dynasty reveals a region that consistently resisted external control and maintained significant autonomy in governance, law, economy, and culture. Despite the Qing court’s efforts to centralize control and assimilate Tibetan society, the resilience of Tibetan institutions—particularly monasteries and local governance structures—ensured that Tibet operated largely as an independent entity.

Puran Chettri is back at it again, doubling down on his conspiracy-laden claims about the Dalai Lama. His latest blog post reads like a greatest-hits compilation of Chinese propaganda—chock full of baseless allegations, obscure sources, and a narrative that sounds suspiciously familiar to anyone who’s read the CCP’s playbook. Let’s unpack Chettri’s latest diatribe and see just how far he’s strayed from reality.

The Tibetan Plateau, often referred to as the "Asian Water Tower," is one of the most ecologically sensitive and strategically vital regions in the world. Home to the largest repository of freshwater outside the polar regions, the plateau is the source of several major rivers that sustain billions of people across Asia. However, recent studies and reports have raised grave concerns about the future of this fragile ecosystem due to increasing temperatures, accelerated glacial melt, and the intensified environmental degradation driven by China's industrial and infrastructural expansion.

In a recent interview that has gone viral, Victor Gao, a former translator for Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping and the current vice president of the Center for China and Globalization, laid bare the disturbing incoherence and moral bankruptcy of China's propaganda machine. The interview, hosted by Mehdi Hasan at Conway Hall in London, was meant to offer insights into China's foreign policy, but instead, it exposed the glaring contradictions and authoritarian mindset that underpin Beijing's global strategy.

The recent conviction of Shujun Wang, a Chinese-American scholar turned spy, is not merely a footnote in the annals of espionage but a stark illustration of a much larger, more nefarious operation: the global surveillance and influence network orchestrated by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Wang’s double life, meticulously engineered by Beijing’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), is emblematic of the CCP’s broader strategy to infiltrate and control global narratives, stifle dissent, and maintain its authoritarian grip on power.

In the realm of geopolitics and international relations, the Tibet-China dispute remains a focal point, particularly regarding the Dalai Lama's role and influence. Puran Chettri's article titled "The Dalai Lama’s Trip to the US is to Prepare for the Transfer of Assets and the Recognition of the 15th Dalai Lama" which was published on Storify (website) is a deeply misleading piece, laced with speculative claims, and unsubstantiated narratives. This article aims to reveal Mr. Chettri’s misleading assertions, expose the underlying propaganda, and highlight how such writings serve to undermine Tibetan-Indian relations while aligning suspiciously with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda.
