Senior Indian journalist, Tibetologist, and longtime friend of Tibet Vijay Kranti launched his new book titled “China’s Colonial Games in Tibet” on Friday at the Tibetan Settlement Office Hall in Dharamshala. The book compiles 60 essays based on presentations by leading experts delivered during nearly 30 international webinars on Tibet–China issues held between 2020 and 2023, organized by Kranti in collaboration with the Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC). Kranti said that around 15 webinars were ultimately selected for the volume, focusing on key issues that experts and concerned organisations have repeatedly raised at international forums, highlighting some of the most severe and inhumane aspects of China’s colonial policies in Tibet. He added that through this effort, they sought to present in a single book a comprehensive account of the major colonial challenges and issues the Tibetan people have faced under China’s rule.
