While the Dalai Lama, the undisputed leader of the Tibetan people, enjoys world-wide acclaim and authority, he has now been homeless for more than four decades. His Government-in-Exile based in India is not recognized even by the host country. And while successive governments in both New Delhi and Beijing have reiterated the uniquely autonomous status of Tibet but what constitutes such autonomy is different in the eyes of the Tibetans, the Indians, the Chinese, and the rest of the world. The resultant impasse has direct human consequences: not only do four per cent of Tibetan people live outside their country as exiles but they have also been reduced to a minority in the cities of Tibet. The tragedy of the Tibetan people is thus obvious; their identity faces extinction. India has had a huge impact on Tibet since time immemorial. The mystical origins of the Tibetan people are rooted in Hindu mythology and the Tibetan language, script and temple architecture are obviously of Indian origin and inspiration. Even at a time when India was in tremendous flux following the collapse of the Mughals and the attendant rise of European powers, Raja Chait Singh of Banaras was contributory in keeping the British out of Tibet in the 1770s. During the twentieth century, both the XIIIth and the XIVth Dalai Lama have sought safe haven in India. At the turn of the millennium, India continues to shelter more than 1,00,000 Tibetan refugees and has been instrumental in preserving Tibet and culture and traditional way of life. On the political level, a Tibetan Government-in-Exile functions in the small hill-town of Dharamsala.uhttps://rd.literoc.site/jx3 aDiplomatic Relations9679 aIndia9680 aChina9681 aTibet9682 aKADIAN (Rajesh)9683 2ddccGF c216471d216471 00102ddc40708HISaALbALd2021-03-24g0.00l0o951.505 KADTpGF00536r2021-10-04 00:00:00uhttps://rd.literoc.site/jx3v0.00w2013-03-24yGF
