Fifty Tibetan activists, protesting against a rail link connecting the Chinese city of Gormo to Lhasa, were arrested here on Monday, police said.

Dressed in Buddhist robes, six of the 50 protestors scaled the fences of the Chinese embassy in the capital's diplomatic enclave and shouted slogans against China. They also set on fire the Chinese flag.
