Despite Chinese bans and threats of punishments, Tibetans in Powa village in Kardze prefecture Bathang County celebrated their annual summer festival with an open display of loyalty to their exile leader by parading a life size portrait of HH the Dalai Lama, as well as ceremonial scarves and prayer offerings. Mobile and internet connections were reported as restricted ahead of the festival, but no police restrictions on the day.
