Stoppage of the artificial wild life skin cloths

An important resolution has been passed by the Local Assembly of Dharamsala that all the wild life skin materials either original or duplicate should be banned altogether because both the materials look similar in the television and there is a risk for not able to identify the real one. The local Heads were requested to implement it seriously and urgently.

In one of the  websites in Tibet, ‘Even though the Tibetan people in Tibet consider the act of boycotting wild life skin as a holistic approach which is also closely related to both the religion and the polity, but there is also a prevailing fashion season of the duplicate wild life skin cloths in Tibet.’

‘Not only that, it is heard that some families preserve their wild life skin apparels carefully thinking that they may prove useful in future. In some places, after seeing some government officials wearing such apparels, the common people feel doubt about the possibility to renew the fashion of the wild life skin cloths in future.’

That likely tempts them to keep their wild life skin apparels safely in the trunks.
Related Incident happened in Lhasa on 19th February: On the second day of the Tibetan New Year at Barkhor in Lhasa, two men were found in wild life skin cloths which was not at all liked by other Tibetan people so there was quarrel and fight between the angry Tibetan mob and the two men. Finally both the men had to go to hospital. Luckily, no one was arrested that time.

On 21st March, again one man came by near Barkhor wearing wild life skin cloths and again he was treated same as earlier but this time that man was not an ordinary man but sent by police. Several policemen without police uniform were ready with guns, chains, electric rods in their hands.Unluckily, around 14 Tibetan people were arrested that time on the pretext of political suspects. At present, their family members are not allowed to contact  them and even their whereabouts are unknown today.
