Chinese Red Troops Set Up
Check Point in Himalaya
Calcutta, India U.R) Chi
nese Communist troops in Tibet
have been deployed to set up
check posts along Bhutan's north
ern frontier,. the newspaper
Statesman's special correspond
ent in Kalimpong reports.
The report said the troops
were sent from Gyantse, third
largest Tibetan town, where Chi
nese troops arrived recently.
Bhutan is an independent
Himalayan state comprising 18,
000 square miles and lies on In
dia's extreme northeastern fron
tier border. It has a population
of some 300,000.
Bhutan is an Indian protector
ate and is guided in its foreign
relations by the Indian govern
ment under a treaty of friend
ship between the two countries
in 1949.
In ancient times, the records
show, China exchanged presents
with Bhutan but did not try to
take over.
The first known and recorded
instance of intercourse between
Bhutan and India goes back to
1774 when Warren Hastings, then
governor general of India, sent a
"John Company" (East India
Company) officer on a good-will
expedition to the court of the re
gent of Tibet via Bhutan. Cordial
relations between Bhutan and
British India were established at
that time.
. In 1866 the British made a
treaty of friendship with Bhutan.
In 1910 the treaty was amended
to include a provision that Bhu
tan's foreign relations should be
controlled by the British Indian
government.
The Bhutanese are a sturdy
mountain people with Tibetan af
finities. They share the religion and
culture of Tibet and look to the
Dalai Lama as their spiritual
head. Bhutan is politically in
dependent of Tibet. The ruler is
the hereditary Maharaja of Bhu
tan, His Highness Sir Jigme Wan
chuk. The only security measures ob
served by the Bhutanese govern
ment is the posting of Bhutanese
"policemen" to guard all import
ant passes and roads leading to
Wednesday, March 3. 1952
and from Tibet
Because Bhutan's defense, like
its external affairs, is managed
by India, it is left to be seen
what military precautions, if any.
Indian military authorities will
adopt with the shadows of Red
China's armed might clearly out
lined on the country's northeast
ern frontier.
