Hosting anti-China activities |
Two significant events strained the relationship between India and China. The annexation of Tibet by China in 1950 eliminated a historical buffer zone that had existed between the two nations. Initially, the Indian government didn't openly oppose this action, but growing awareness of the suppression of Tibetan culture led to increasing unease. In 1959, the Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, sought and received political asylum in India, causing China to accuse India of harboring anti-China activities. |
