400 held after Tibet protests China blasts Dalai Lama Call for talks with Dalai Lama Casualties worry Dalai Lama Dalai Lama may resign

New Delhi - Exiled spiritual leader the Dalai Lama reiterated on Thursday a threat to resign as leader of Tibet's exiles if there are more violent anti-Chinese protests inside or outside China.

"If the violent demonstrations continue, I would resign," the Buddhist leader said in the Indian capital, where he was conducting a week of meditation workshops.

"I think inside or outside China, if the demonstrators utilise violent methods, I am totally against it," the Dalai Lama added.

Last week the spiritual leader, who has been based in the northern Indian town of Dharamshala since a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959, issued a similar warning.
