Protests in Bangaluru

This picture was taken in Bangaluru during a street protest/demonstration. Most of the participants were Tibetan monks and students who have taken refugee in India. The situation in Tibet has been put on the International stage with the Beijing Olympics around the corner. The Dalai Lama has accused the Chinese government of cultural genocide and is urging the United Nations to investigate China's actions in Lhassa. I am hopiung that the conflict will end peacefully, but for now the tensions remain high.
