The
Tibetans
in
India
live
in
separate
colonies
or
settle-ments.
Through
the_centuries
India
has
welcomed
and
absorbed
foreigners
and
refugees
who
have
retained
their
separate
religions,
language
and
culture,
but
have
at
the
same
time
merged
into
the
main-stream
of
life.
Budhism
is
the
religion
of
Tibetans.
Parallel
with
the
Tibetans
would
be
the
Parsees
who
arrived
as
refugees
from
religious
persecution
from
Persia
some
1400=500
years
ago.
They
still
worship
Zoraster
in
their
own
temples.
They
still
have
their
own
distinctive
culture,
but
they
speak
the
language
of
the
part
of
India
where
they
first
settled
and
they
have
adopted
Indian
dress
and
customs
and
rituals.
They
have
contributed
greatly
to
every
sphere
of
Indian
life.
The
Tibetans
are
however,
divided
on
this
issue.
Thus,
under
the
changed
tendencies
and
circumstances,
we
should
make
arrangements
to
let
our
children
learn
English
language
from
the
very
start
of
childhood.
In
this
way,
after
becoming
major
and
completing
their
studies
in
India,
they
may
move
in
any
apart
of
the
world
as
per
their
aspirations,
circumstances
and
opportunities.
Without
the
knowledge
of
English,
our
youth
will
feel
handicapped
to
compete
with
the
youth
of
other
countries
and
to
avoid
this
barricade,
English
learning
from
the
very
start
of
primary
school
level
would
definitely
prove
beneficial
and
fruitful
in
every
respect.
Every
aspect
of
the
life
of
the
citizens
is
tightly
supervised
by
the
local
police.
As
a
consequence,
there
is
100%
compliance
with
three
specific
instructions
:
one
is
that
every
household
must
keep
a
reserve
stock
of
approximately
two
months’
requirements
of
food
and
daily
provisions.
Secondly,
the
entire
male
population
must
take
part
in
civil
defence
exercises
and
must
be
constantly
available
for
military
duty.
Thridly,
everyone
must
be
ready
at
all
times
with
one’s
arms.
The
government
issue
arms
and
ammunition
to
each
household.
All
men
between
20
and
50
years
of
age
must
do
military
service
and
until
the
age
of
32,
must
attend
military
colleges
for
20
days
every
year
and
one
at
least
for
90
days.
