Tibetan students protest against proposed visit of Wen Jiabao

New Delhi, Nov.1 (ANI): Tibetan youths on Monday protested against the visit of a Chinese delegation to New Delhi to lay the ground work for the forthcoming visit of Premier Wen Jiabao.

The Police officials whisked away the protesters who were waving Tibetan flags and shouting anti-China and anti-Wen Jiabao slogans.

Earlier in the day, a Chinese delegation led by the member of China's Politburo Standing Committee in-charge of political, legal and legislative agenda, Zhou Yongkang, met Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh.

Wen Jiabao is expected to visit New Delhi in December.

An estimated 80,000 Tibetans arrived in India along with the Dalai Lama after an abortive uprising against the Chinese rule in 1959 and over the years their numbers have swelled. (ANI)
