NEW DELHI: A day after Arunachal Pradesh CM Pema Khandu said India does not share any boundary with China, BJP Rajya Sabha MP Sujeet Kumar doubled down on the issue on Friday saying India should stop referring to India-Tibet border as India-China border, reports Pradeep Thakur.
"We don't have any borders with China. They've occupied Tibet and it's today an occupied territory," Kumar said, referring to the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1949-50.
Unmindful of backlash from Beijing, the Rajya Sabha MP called for Parliament to have more debates on Chinese occupation of Tibet and an ongoing cultural genocide in the occupied plateau, similar to what Nazi Germany did.
Kumar is the ex-convener of the All Party Indian Parliamentary Forum for Tibet (APIPFT) and a vocal voice among Tibet support groups. He is also presently engaged in a signature drive of Parliamentarians canvassing for Dalai Lama to be conferred the Bharat Ratna.
