"International Olympic Committee (IOC) should warn China that its right to host the Games would be revoked if there is no improvement in its human rights record। But the recent attack on the Tibetan refugees at Nangpa Pass clearly reveals the inflexible attitude of the Chinese government for not considering Human Rights as an important issue. So we request all the sports fraternity of the world to support Tibet by boycotting the Olympic game in Beijing" said B Tsering, President of Tibetan Women’s Association. Showing their great support, Mr Girish Juyal, National Coordinator for Minorities and Mr Mohamad Afzal, Convener for Nationalist Muslim Movement spoke for few minutes to the crowd. They made their presence in the evening and confirmed themselves as an ardent supportor of Tibet in their freedom struggle. The day culminated with a prayer session with a hope that Tibet will see a better tomorrow real soon.
