The key to an effective stance on Tibet lies with Indian Communists. Will they stand up to truth or compromise on truth for the sake of their 'revolutionary politics'. This unresolved question was atleast responded with ambiguity by Communists. Not any more it seems. The deliberate distortion on 'food front' by them really opens up a question whether the provided 'cover fire' to China. The ambuigity phase is over for them. They have to establish their non-aligned credentials of Nehruvian consensus else risk confrontation.
