Senior police of ficials in Ahmedabad later said that 52 Tibetan students -- 26 boys and 26 girls -- have been detained in Vadodara as a precautionary step. "There is a general intelligence input about a possible self-immolation bid. We are taking all precautions and keeping a close watch on the developments," said a senior police official. Tibetan students in the past have held demonstrations against China, demanding a free Tibet. "There is apprehension that Tibetan students may organize a rally in the city.
