Tibet’s government-in-exile, also known as the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), has once again elected Penpa Tsering as its new president. He took oath as ‘Sikyong’ (President in Tibetan) at the Dalai Lama Temple in McLeodganj, Dharamshala on Wednesday. The 14th Dalai Lama also participated in this swearing-in ceremony. Apart from senior officials from India, official representatives of the United States, United Kingdom (UK) and Latin America were also present at the event. All of them, using the platform of Dharamsala (which is the headquarters of CTA), strongly condemned China’s role in Tibet. All this happened at a time when India and China are once again trying to improve their relations after the 2020 border standoff.

The CTA was founded by the Dalai Lama in 1959 and until 2011 he was the supreme head of the body, which handles the political affairs of Tibetans in exile. In 2011, he handed over his entire political and administrative powers to a democratically elected leader. Penpa Tsering is the third directly elected Tibetan leader after this transfer of powers. This is his second term as President of CTA.

Ups and downs in India-China relations

While on one hand Dalai Lama’s grant of asylum in India has been an old cause of dispute between India and China, on the other hand, Beijing (China) has also been expressing anger at New Delhi (India) regarding the establishment of CTA.

After the border standoff that started in April-May 2020, relations between the two countries remained tense for almost four years. During this standoff, violent clashes also took place in Galwan Valley in June 2020. After this, India and China tried to melt the ice in relations. Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a bilateral meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia in October 2024. This meeting signaled the formal resumption of diplomatic relations. Before this meeting, an agreement was reached between the armies of the two countries on border patrolling, which ended the four-year-long standoff on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh and restored India’s patrolling rights.

Several high-level visits took place after this meeting, but the biggest success came in August 2025 when PM Modi went to Tianjin, China for the 25th Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit. This was Modi’s first official visit to China after 2018. The visit resulted in improved relations, following which visa restrictions were eased, direct flights resumed and investment rules were eased.

Dalai Lama’s successor issue

India is now hoping that President Xi Jinping will come to India to participate in the BRICS summit to be held in September this year. Therefore, as India looks forward to improving its relations with China, it would be wise for New Delhi to clarify its stand on the issue of reincarnation (successor) of the Dalai Lama. This issue has become not only a political but also a geopolitical issue for Beijing.

Just days before Penpa Tsering’s swearing-in ceremony, the Chinese government issued a strong statement on the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama and recognition of the CTA as a legitimate body representing Tibetans. It is also worth noting here that China did not send its Foreign Minister Wang Yi to the BRICS Foreign Ministers’ meeting held on 14-15 May, but instructed the Chinese Ambassador to attend in his place.

Paradox of Indian foreign policy

All the foreign representatives who came to Tsering’s swearing-in ceremony openly criticized China, while New Delhi (Government of India) remained silent on it. The contradiction in India’s foreign policy is reflected in the fact that on one hand it wants to improve its strained relations with China, but on the other hand it allows foreign powers to use Indian soil to criticize the Chinese government.

Interestingly, India itself never raises the issue of Tibet with China in any official meeting because it follows the ‘One China’ principle in its foreign policy. Yet, India allows others to target Beijing from its soil.

In June 2024, former Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and a group of US lawmakers visited Dharamshala to meet the Dalai Lama. During her public speech, Pelosi had used very strong words against Chinese President Xi Jinping on the issue of Tibet. It is believed in the corridors of New Delhi that it was because of this strong criticism of Xi Jinping by Pelosi that China had delayed the talks with India to resolve the border dispute.

Indian officials’ statements and future strategy

During the swearing-in of the new Sikyong on Wednesday, foreign representatives once again made sharp attacks on China. But the most important thing here were the statements made by the Indian officials. Rajya Sabha MP Sujit Kumar and co-convenor of ‘All-Party Indian Parliamentary Forum for Tibet’ and Lok Sabha MP Tapir Gao were present at the event.

Talking about Tibetans living inside Tibet, Sujit Kumar said that they are being “deprived of their basic human rights” and their language, culture, religion, identity and their basic way of life are being “systematically destroyed” by China. “This is nothing but a crime against humanity, it is a genocide,” Kumar said in his speech.

After this, Tapir Gao, coming from Arunachal Pradesh, said that the new cabinet (17th Kashag) to be formed under the leadership of President Tsering should not only take care of the welfare and development of Tibetans in exile, but should also take care of “those Tibetans living inside Tibet who are suffering, and living in fear for their education, culture, religion and human rights.” “We need to work together for an independent Tibet,” Gao said.

The question that arises is that if Indian officials feel that this should be the future work of CTA, then why does the Indian government itself shy away from raising the issue of Tibet in the bilateral talks between the leaders of both the sides? Perhaps India fears that if it does this, China will raise the issue of Jammu and Kashmir dispute.

However, amid the changing geopolitical environment, even though India and China are moving towards improving their relations, the reality is that the situation on the border is still tense due to heavy army deployment on both sides of the Line of Actual Control (LAC). If New Delhi wants a stronger leverage against China, it can start playing the ‘Tibet card’ against China.

On the other hand, Beijing is continuously putting pressure on India by saying that the reincarnation of Dalai Lama is its internal matter and India should not recognize the CTA as it should follow the ‘One China’ principle. Instead of turning a blind eye to these threats from Beijing, now is the time for New Delhi to formulate a solid foreign policy on the Tibet issue, as it is now almost seven decades (70 years) since the Dalai Lama took refuge in India.

When India recently announced the purchase of 114 new Rafale fighter jets, there was a wave of happiness everywhere. Why not, this is the same deadly fighter plane which defeated Pakistan in Operation Sindoor. But it is also true that India’s biggest neighboring enemy is China, which is far ahead of India in terms of fighter jets. Even after the arrival of 114 Rafale, India will not be able to catch up with China. But why and how? Let us know…

Question 1: What is India’s 114 Rafale deal, and what is its status?
answer: India’s 114 Rafale deal is part of the Multi-Role Fighter Aircraft (MRFA) programme, which is meant to provide air superiority to the Indian Air Force. On 12 February 2026, the Defense Acquisition Council (DAC) approved the Acceptance of Necessity (AoN) for this deal. This deal is with France’s Dassault Aviation Company and 114 Rafale jets are to be purchased. 90 jets will be made in India, which will have 50% indigenous content. The total price of 114 Rafale jets is around Rs 3.25 lakh crore.

India has already inducted 36 Rafales from the 2016 deal and a deal for 26 marine variants was signed last year. With the addition of 114 new Rafales, India’s strength will increase manifold. This means that India will be able to compete with its most powerful neighboring enemy, China. But wait… first let us know what is the status of the existing fighter jets with India and China.

Question 2: How many 4th generation and above fighter jets does India have?
answer: According to the report of Global Firepower, by February 2026, India has 480 to 485 fourth generation and above fighter jets, which are considered the backbone of the Indian Air Force…

• Sukhoi SU-30MKI: It is a 4.5 generation heavy-duty twin-engine fighter jointly developed by Russia and India, which is the biggest strength of the Indian Air Force. India has 263 Sukhoi. Its supermaneuverability, canard delta wing design and advanced avionics systems make it unmatched in air-to-air and air-to-ground attacks, where it can carry long-range missiles like BrahMos. Under the upgrade plan, 84 jets are being made more advanced, which can magically change the game in air combat with its thrust vectoring technology.
• Dassault Rafale: This 4.5 generation twin-engine delta wing multi-role fighter from France is considered the pride of the Indian Air Force. India has 36 Rafale jets, which include 28 single-seat EH and 8 double-seat DH. Rafale has proved its strength in missions like Operation Sindoor. Equipped with advanced AESA radar, electronic warfare systems and Meteor and Scalp missiles, this jet also has high maneuverability and stealth-like features, which is adept in carrying out precise attacks while avoiding enemy radar. In the coming time, this fleet will be further strengthened with the purchase of 114 more Rafales, giving India new heights in long-range strike capability.
• HAL Tejas: India’s fourth generation indigenous lightweight single-engine delta wing fighter, of which 30 MK-1 variants are active, is a symbol of the flight of self-reliant India. Equipped with fly-by-wire controls, advanced AESA radar upgrades and internal weapons bay, this jet is the king in multi-role missions, including air-to-air refueling and precision strikes. 141 MK1A variants are on order, which will give new impetus to India’s air defense with its low radar cross-section and high-speed performance.
• Dassault Mirage 2000: France’s fourth-generation single-engine delta wing multi-role fighter, of which 36 H/I variants are active in India, excels in high-speed interception. The upgraded 2000I standard with improved avionics and weapons compatibility enables it to perform air-to-ground strikes and reconnaissance missions. It can carry laser-guided bombs. This jet, which became famous for its role in the Kargil war, still keeps India’s air superiority strong.
• Mikoyan MiG-29: It is a fourth generation twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter of the Soviet Union, of which 59 jets are active in the Indian Air Force. It plays a big role in air defense. The UPG variant has an upgraded radar, glass cockpit, and increased engine thrust making it specialized in ground attack and interception, where it uses BVR missiles. This jet, deployed on the borders of India, keeps an eye on the movements of the enemy and gives quick response in the war.

Question 3: How many 4th generation and above fighter jets does China have?
answer: According to the Global Firepower report, by February 2026, China is expected to have about 1,600 to 1,800 4th generation and above fighter jets, making the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) the world’s fastest growing and modern air force…

• Chengdu J-20: It is China’s main 5th generation stealth fighter, with more than 300 jets active in February 2026 and this number is increasing rapidly. The twin-engine, heavy-weight air superiority fighter features a stealth design, AESA radar, supercruise (with WS-15 engines) and long-range PL-15/PL-21 missiles. With this, it can destroy the target from a distance of 100 km while avoiding enemy radar. The new variants include maritime strike and twin-seat J-20S, which give the PLAAF a strong deterrence in the Indo-Pacific.
• Shenyang J-16: 4.5 generation multi-role strike fighter, with approximately 450 jets active and projected to reach 900 by 2030. Developed on the basis of SU-30, this twin-seat jet is equipped with AESA radar, electronic warfare systems and large weapons payload (anti-ship, ground attack), making it adept in high-speed and long-range operations. It is the main multi-role force of the PLAAF, adept at both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions.
• Chengdu J-10: It is a 4th/4.5 generation lightweight multi-role fighter, of which more than 600 jets are in service. This single-engine, delta-canard designed jet is equipped with high manoeuvrability, AESA radar and BVR missiles like PL-15. These features make it expert in air defense and ground attack. The J-10C variant is the most advanced and accounts for the largest share in the PLAAF’s numbers.

• Shenyang J-11: It is a 4th generation air superiority fighter jet, whose number is around 400. The twin-engine, heavy fighter includes advanced avionics, thrust vectoring and long-range missiles, making it strong in long-range interception. Although the older variants are gradually being retired, the upgraded J-11B still holds a major responsibility.
• Sukhoi Su-30MKK/MK2 and Su-35S: There are above fourth generation multi-role fighter jets of Russian origin, the total number of which is more than 150. These are equipped with high manoeuvrability, long-range radar and multi-role capability, but China is now gradually replacing them with the domestic J-16. These are still used in training and special missions.

Question 4: So will India remain behind China even after the arrival of 114 Rafale and why?
answer: After the arrival of 114 Rafale, India will have a total of 176 Rafale jets and the total fleet of fighter jets will reach above 600. But the main reason for lagging behind China is China’s numerical superiority, where it already has more than 1,800 fighter jets.

China is making more than 200 new fourth and fifth generation jets every year. China has more than 300 5th generation jets like J-20, which are ahead of any Indian jet in stealth and long-range strikes, whereas India does not yet have any 5th generation jet.

According to the report of the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS), Rafale is 4.5 generation, which is better than J-10 or J-11, but it will be difficult to compete with the stealth and sensor fusion of J-20. Also, the squadron strength of the Indian Air Force is currently 30, while the sanctioned strength is 42 and due to the two-front challenge of China-Pakistan, India needs more jets.

Question 5: Will this situation of India ever change? What will happen next?
answer: HAL Chairman Dr. D.K. According to Sunil’s report of June 25, 2025, 6 Tejas will be delivered by March 2026. With this, India’s squadron strength will reach 42 and 450 jets can be deployed on the China-Pakistan border. But China is working on 6th generation jets, which will have AI and hypersonic speed. India’s deterrence capability will increase in the coming years, as shown by Rafale in Operation Vermillion (2025), but if China’s production speed continues, India will have to import more or accelerate indigenous programs, otherwise the gap in air superiority will remain.

China Online Visa Application System: After the strain in relations between India and China about five years ago, both the countries are now trying to move forward, leaving behind the old sourness. In this sequence, after the restoration of tourist visa for Chinese citizens, the Chinese Embassy in India has made another important announcement. Chinese Ambassador posted in India, Xu Feihong, said on Monday that the online visa system is being started by the Chinese Embassy in India this month.

It is noteworthy that after the violent clash between the soldiers of the two countries in Galwan Valley in June 2020, tourist visas for Chinese citizens were banned. This incident had taken the relations between India and China to the lowest level.

However, after this, through several rounds of diplomatic talks and commander level meetings, both the countries took steps towards reducing tension. Due to continuous talks and agreements, the situation has gradually become normal and now both the neighboring countries are moving forward and trying to strengthen their mutual relations again.

In the direction of normalizing India-China relations, China Eastern Airlines is preparing to restart round-trip flights between Shanghai and New Delhi from 9 November 2025. This flight between the two cities will run every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. The airline will use Airbus A330-200 wide-body aircraft on this route, in which passengers will get better comfort and Wi-Fi facilities during long distance travel.

Flight timings between New Delhi-Shanghai

China Eastern Airlines flight MU563 will depart from Shanghai at 12:50 pm and reach Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport at 5:45 pm. Whereas flight MU564 will depart from Delhi at 7:55 pm and reach Shanghai at 4:10 am the next morning. The airline has also started selling tickets for this route, which is expected to strengthen the trade, education, technology and tourism sectors.

Connectivity between the two countries will increase: Airlines

During the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin in August this year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping had announced the resumption of direct flights between selected cities of the two countries. On behalf of China Eastern Airlines, it was said that this step will add new energy to the contacts and business relations between the two countries.

Indigo had also announced to start flights

Earlier this month, IndiGo had announced to start daily flights from Kolkata to Guangzhou, China from October 26. The airline is also expected to start flight operations between Delhi and Guangzhou. IndiGo CEO Peter Elbers had said on October 3, “We are extremely excited to announce the resumption of direct flights between India and China. We are proud to be among the first airlines to launch direct flights to China from two cities. This step will also strengthen bilateral relations between the two countries.

Flights between India and China were stopped during the Covid-19 pandemic. However, even after everything was back on track, flights between the two countries did not start. Due to the violent clash in Galwan Valley and failure to agree on the air bubble agreement, aviation links between the two countries remained stalled for a long time.

India-china direct flights: After the US imposing 50 percent high tariff on India, the relationship between the two countries can be seen. However, the then President Trump has also raised some hope by indicating on business talks. Meanwhile, India is turning to other markets instead of America and the second major economic power of the world is continuously emphasizing its relations with China.

Direct flight between India-China

In this direction, the Ministry of External Affairs has announced to start direct flight service between India and China in late October. IndiGo, the country’s largest airline, announced that flight would fly daily between Guangzhu and Kolkata from 26 October. Apart from this, there is a plan to start flight service between Delhi to Guangzhu.

Closed flights service after Kovid-19 epidemic

After the Kovid-19 epidemic, there was no direct flight service between India and China since the beginning of 2020. However, flight service between China’s special administrative area Hong Kong and India is still available. According to civil aviation sources, Air India is planning to start a direct flight service between New Delhi to Shanghai by the end of this year, although its official announcement is yet to be done.

Before the Korona epidemic, only Indigo and Air India used to provide flight service between India and China. Apart from this, after a clash in Galwan of Ladakh in 2020, direct flight services between the two countries remained closed for a long time. There were several level of talks between the two countries and an attempt was made to fix the tension. But during this time air connectivity between the two countries was not yet done.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to China has been completed and he has left from Tianjin. In view of the 50 percent tariff imposed on India by US President Donald Trump, PM Modi’s visit to China proved to be very important. PM Modi surrounded Pakistan over terrorism at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, while Donald Trump has also received a strong message with China and Russia on a platform with China and Russia. Read the big things of PM Modi’s SCO Summit-

1- PM Modi reached Tianjin in China on 31 August from Japan. He was given a grand welcome on the red carpet here. Chinese President Xi Jinping also welcomed PM Modi with warmth. In the photo session of the SCO Summit, PM Modi stood in the first line, where Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin stood. Apart from these, Turki President Erdogan, Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif also stood in the first line.

2- During the SCO Summit, a brilliant tuning between Prime Minister Modi, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin appeared. During this time, where Putin hugged PM Modi, his tuning also appeared with Xi Jinping. The three leaders stood together and were talking with each other smiling.

3- A unique incident also appeared during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in Tianjin. When Prime Minister Modi and Russian President Putin were moving forward talking together, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif stood in one corner. During this time he appeared under great stress. The video of this incident is going viral on social media.

4- Prime Minister Modi targeted Pakistan fiercely by referring to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam during the SCO Summit. PM Modi said, ‘India is facing the brunt of terrorism. How many mothers lost their children and how many children became orphans. Recently, we saw a very disgusting form of terror in Pahalgam. In this hour of grief, I thank the friendly countries who stood with us. This attack was not only on the soul of India, but was a challenge to every country and person believing in humanity. In such a situation, it is natural to raise the question whether we can accept open support of terrorism by some countries. We have to say clearly and in the same tone that we will not be acceptable to any double standard on terrorism. Together we have to oppose terrorism in every color and form. This is our responsibility towards humanity.

5- How the relationship between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Putin can be understood from a picture from Tianjin. In this photo, PM Modi and Putin were sitting in the same car together. During this, both leaders were seen talking. It has also been revealed that when Putin was about to leave for bilateral talks, he expressed his desire to go with PM Modi.

6- Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in a bilateral conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, ‘India and Russia have always stood shoulder to shoulder even in the most difficult situations. Our close cooperation is important not only for the people of both countries, but also for global peace, stability and prosperity.

During this conversation, Putin called PM Modi a ‘friend’.

7- PM Modi also invited Putin to come to India during bilateral talks. He said, ‘I always feel that meeting you has been a memorable experience. We got an opportunity to exchange information on many subjects. We have been in constant touch. There have been several high-level meetings between the two sides on a regular basis. 140 crore Indians are eagerly waiting for our 23rd summit to be held in December this year.

8- Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said in a bilateral meeting with PM Modi, ‘I am very happy to meet you. The SCO provides a platform to unite global south and east countries. The 15th anniversary is to develop India-Russia relations as a ‘special and privileged strategic partnership’ on December 21, 2025. We have multidimensional relations. Today’s meeting is expected to give significant boost to India-Russia relations. Russia and India have very good relations.

9- In the manifesto of Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), the Pahalgam terror attack has been condemned. The declaration has expressed condolences to the families of the injured in a terrorist attack in Pahalgam on 22 April 2025. The manifesto further states that the culprits, organizers and sponsors of such attacks should be brought into the dock of justice.

10- Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the visit to China as successful and said that in this visit I attended the SCO summit and interacted with various world leaders. Also emphasized India’s stand on major global issues. Thanks to President Xi Jinping, Chinese government and public for the successful organization of this summit.

The way US President Donald Trump put indiscriminate tariffs, India and China came together before the economic turmoil. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who came to attend the SCO Summit in Tianjin, met Chinese President Xi Jinping and the two countries showed solidarity and sent a message to Trump that elephants and dragons had come together. Trump’s trade advisor Peter Navaro, who was stunned by India-China, once again said about India that he is financed by Ukraine War.

Peter Navaro gave a statement against India and said that Russia’s ‘war machine’ is being promoted by India buying Russian oil. Criticizing India, Navaro said, ‘India is fining Russia to continue war in Ukraine by purchasing Russian oil. India is increasing the war by purchasing cheap oil from Russia.

India used to buy very little oil from Russia before Ukraine war: Navaro

In an interview to Fox News, Peter Navaro said that India had not only bought Russian oil, but also bought a very small amount of Russian oil before Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine. After all, what happened is that Russian refiners joined with big oil companies in India.

India earning money with Russian oil: Navaro

He said, ‘Putin gives exemption on crude oil to Indian Prime Minister Modi. They refine it and send it to Europe, Africa and Asia and earn a lot of money. This promotes the Russian war machine. India is nothing but a laundry machine for Kremlin, which is helping Russia kill Ukrainians.

Peter Navaro has given statements against India before

Trump’s advisor Navaro has given statements against India earlier and has described India as a financer of Ukraine War. He had said, ‘American consumers buy Indian goods, while India keeps out American exports through high tariffs. India uses our dollar to buy concessional dandruff crude oil.

Meeting between PM Modi and Xi Jinping

In Tianjin, China, there was bilateral talks between PM Modi and President Xi Jinping on Sunday (August 31) on the sidelines of the SCO Summit. During this time, the two countries expressed their commitment to increase their cooperation and strengthen relations. The Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement that PM Modi and Jinping emphasized the need to increase the shared base on challenges such as bilateral, regional and global issues. Also reiterated that India and China are partners of development, not rivals and differences should not be changed into controversies. According to the ministry, Prime Minister Modi invited President Xi for the BRICS summit, which India will host in 2026.

America imposed 50 percent tariff on India

Donald Trump had imposed a 25 percent tariff on India, but by making excuses for the purchase of oil from Russia, he imposed a 25 percent tariff, which has come into force from 27 August. Trump’s tariff is likely to cause damage to India in many sectors, in view of which India is looking for different markets for different sectors. Meanwhile, relations with China are also getting better, in such a situation, Trump’s tariff is not expected to have much effect.

Trump’s soft attitude towards China

Trump has trouble buying oil from Russia in India. For this reason, he has imposed 50 percent tariff on India. India had the first 25 percent tariff. After this, 25 percent was increased. However, it is also important that it has taken a soft stand towards China, while China also buys oil from Russia.
