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.
Naren Chandra Das, the last surviving member of the squad of Indian soldiers who escorted HH the Dalai Lama into India when he fled to India from Tibet in 1959, has died at the age of 85 at his home in Assam in northeastern India. He was 22 when he escorted His Holiness into Arunachal Pradesh. His Holiness and Das met again after nearly 60 years in 2017.
