Tibetan monasteries in Qinghai province have been threatened with tightened control. Radio Free Asia has reported that monastery managers suspected of challenging Beijing’s rule will be replaced with Chinese officials. The main target is Nyatso Zilkar monastery in Tridu county, where monks have led protest marches and held prayer gatherings to honour self-immolators. Shelma, Drubgyu and Lu monasteries may also be affected.
