If India tries to take advantage of Tibet/Xinjiang, what do you think would stop China from helping those insurgents groups and separatists in India?
There is a presumption that PRC is not helping insurgent groups and separatists in India. I am not too familiar to make a conclusion at this moment. The precedent in Nepal can be explored. One can however develop a strong premise to show that Pakistan is being supported, reinforced and many say motivated against India by the PRC.

There is also a strong premise that India has not taken advantage and has not made any arrangement to disturb directly what is happening in Tibet and Xinjiang and North and South China relationship, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and insertion and promotion of democracy at this moment. The 1962 war and Dali Lama and american relationship are in the background. there is also the PRC relationship with its other neighbors, Russia is also there because PRC back stabbed them royally, there is also the nuclear weapons and the UNSC.
If PRC tries to take advantage of Pakistan against India, what do you think would stop India from reacting. PRC has not had the privilege of the India intellectual community and its concentration be focused on PRC. Its how we deal with Pakistan. To be frank the Pakis are difficult to deal with but we have managed well intellectually. It is not a short-term development rather a medium to long term development. The Pakis are difficult ask any nation apart from India and compare with PRC (in terms of difficulty). The Chinese are known to be pragmatic.
Next (if and when it were to come about) there is substantial political and social instability in PRC. For example the end of the Communist party rule in PRC. For example what happened to Soviet Union. Will India have a
contingency in place to take advantage of that in its favor. Promotion of self-determination in regions in PRC, insertion of stable forces, support of political parties. For example what happened in dissolution of soviet union. My feeling is no at this moment - India will not get involved.

But the above takes away from the better proposition one for thought and that is that assumption that the PRC and Pakistan relationship will always be rosy, auspicious and happy for each other. I find it hard to believe the Pakis can request the Chinese to do something for them. Pakis are not known to be good disciples, devotees and adherent to others. You can ask the Americans, Afgans and Indians. Can PRC rely on Pakistan. How to make Pakistan rely on PRC. Will PRC make Pakistan like North Korea. Can India enlighten the PRC that unlike North Korea the Pakis will not be fanatic zealot towards it always.
I know Chinese people are pragmatic and in the end they will prefer to share a drink with Indians rather the Pakis. Perhaps someone needs to remind the PRC of that one day. If that is done India need to worry much less about a war and confrontation with PRC.
