Dalai Lama calls for ‘Oneness’ on Tibetan Uprising Day

Every year on March 10, the Tibetan Uprising Day is marked to remember that momentous occasion and to honour the sacrifices made by the Tibetan people for independence from Chinese oppression.

March 10, 2023, Tibet Day commemorates a pivotal historical event when the Tibetan people rebelled against Chinese occupation and repression. This day commemorates people who struggled for their independence and raises awareness. China seized Tibet, also known as the Tibet Autonomous Area, in 1950. At Lhasa, Tibet’s capital city, which had been ruled by China since 1951, the Tibetan people organized an uprising on March 10, 1959.

The conflict became violent, resulting in several fatalities. Every year on march 10, the Tibetan uprising day is marked to remember that momentous event and to honour the sacrifices made by way of the tibetan human beings in their combat for freedom from chinese rule.

Dalai lama in his March 10 address called for “oneness”. The spiritual leader said, “We are the same human beings and should remain on this planet as brothers and sisters.”

Hundreds of Tibetans in Shimla and across the state gathered to remember and honor the sacrifice made by fellow Tibetans.
