The Chinese government has stepped up criticism of the Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled spiritual leader, who fled to India 50 years ago after a failed uprising against Chinese rule in his homeland. China has also increased security in Tibet and Tibetan areas of China, as it prepares to celebrate what it is calling "Serf Emancipation Day (March 28)." The holiday will mark the 50th anniversary of when it says it brought democratic reform to a dark and feudal Tibet. Stephanie Ho reports from Beijing.
