NEW DELHI, India — About a hundred Tibetan exiles on a six-month protest march to their homeland defied the Indian government’s orders to halt Tuesday.
The protesters, mostly monks and nuns, began their march Monday, the anniversary of a failed uprising against Chinese rule in Tibet in 1959, and planned to walk 13 miles Tuesday despite a restraining order the Indian government issued Monday evening, organizers of the march said.
The march is one of several international protests related to Chinese rule in Tibet that are underway before the Summer Olympics in Beijing in August.
