NEW DELHI (AP) — Dozens of Tibetans living in India protested outside China's embassy on Tuesday against the human rights situation in their homeland, which China annexed in 1951.
Police blocked the protesters from entering the embassy and detained some after chasing them and wrestling them to the ground.
The protest came as China marks its 75th year of Communist Party rule.
The Tibetan Youth Congress, which organized the protest, blames China for repressing Tibetan culture.
