Contact is taking a holiday!

Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.

When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.

Special Frontier Force

January 27, 2021;

Section Leader Tsering Norbu of the Special Frontier Force has been named in the Mention-in-Dispatches category of the 2021 Padma awards for his role in Operation Snow Leopard – the codename for the ongoing military manoeuvres against China along the Line of Actual Control. Tibetan service personnel – who have been serving since 1962 – are rarely recognised due to the secretive nature of their involvement in the Indian armed forces.
