| Summary / Abstract (Note) | From the security perspective, china’s occupation of Tibet in 1950-51 precipitated developments which had a strong bearing on security concerns in the region, particularly for India. India is closely connected to Tibet by virtue of historical and cultural links, and geographical proximity. This proximity coupled with India’s unwavering support to the Tibetan cause has resulted in India being the only country to bear the repercussions of China’s consolidation in Tibet. The Tibet issue, from its outset, has a wide range of security implications for India and it has been an irritant in the Sino-Indian bilateral relations. taking these into consideration, it is pertinent to delve into various aspects of the Tibet issue which are directly linked to India’s national Security. |
