India’s Diplomatic Boycott Olympics – Doordarshan Winter Olympics Broadcast: The Indian mission in Beijing will not participate in the opening and closing ceremonies of the Games, which officially kick off on Friday, the government announced on Thursday following Wednesday’s revelation that a PLA regiment commander involved in the June 2020 Galwan clash was a torchbearer at the Olympics.

Alpine skier Arif Khan is the from Kashmir is only Indian this year to qualify for the 2022 Winter Olympics being held in the Chinese capital. He is accompanied by Chef De Mission Harjinder Singh and support staff.

No LIVE Broadcast of Winter Olympics Opening & Closing Ceremonies: Minutes after MEA spokesperson’s statement, the chief of public broadcaster Prasar Bharti, CEO Shashi Shekhar Vempati, said that it “will not telecast live the Opening and Closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics being held in Beijing”.

Doordarshan Winter Olympics Broadcast: India’s decision to boycott the games comes months after it adopted the BRICS joint statement in September last year, where it said, “We express our support to China to host the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.”

Why India has announced Diplomatic Boycott of Winter Olmpics in Beijing? The Galwan clashes in mid-June 2020 had resulted in the death of 20 Indian soldiers. This included a Colonel. China had last year admitted to losing at least four of its troops, making it the bloodiest encounter between the two nations in over four decades.

India has also lodged a protest with China over the treatment meted out to an by the PLA after he was apparently abducted. The official confirmed India had taken up the issue with the Chinese authorities.

Miram Taron, 17, was allegedly abducted by the Chinese army on January 18 from Lungta Jor area near the LAC in Arunachal Pradesh when he was on a “hunting trip” with his friend Johny Yaying. Taron has said that he was tortured by the Chinese forces and was even given electric shocks.

This has resulted in frosty relations between the two nations.

India’s Diplomatic Boycott Olympics:Unlike some Western countries, which have boycotted the games over China’s human rights record, India’s reason is “different.”

The US, UK and Canada have declared a diplomatic boycott of the Games, along with Australia, Lithuania, Kosovo, Belgium, Denmark and Estonia.

Although they will all send athletes to compete, no ministers or officials will attend.

The US has said this was because of China’s “human rights abuses and atrocities in Xinjiang” against the province’s Muslim population. “It’s shameful that Beijing chose a torchbearer for the Olympics 2022 who’s part of the military command that attacked India in 2020,” said Senator Jim Risch, a Republican ranking member of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
