China is a threat to the world in every sense of the word. Toronto RTYC is greatly shocked to see the influence of China even on the Indian Film Certification Board that has censored the show of Tibetan National Flag and banner in one of the Bollywood film “Rockstar”, directed by Imtiaz Ali. It is nothing but a pure show complacence to the Chinese pressure and a violation of freedom of speech and expression by the Indian Censor Board. At a critical time when Tibetans at their prime of age are doing their ultimate sacrifice through self-immolation, this act by the Indian Film Censor Board is highly uncalled for and we condemn the Board for their undemocratic act. We also strongly feel that India, which is one of the largest democratic nations should not heed to the pressure exerted by China.
