Lone Protest in Exile

June 22, 2021;

Lobsang Tenzin, 60, from the Hunsur Rabgyal Ling Tibetan settlement in Karnataka staged a protest on June 20 against the recent actions of the Tibetan Government-in-Exile.

The Tibet Express quotes him as saying, “The present discord and the division is not right”.
