'China will interfere with Dalai Lama...' | Tibet-govt-in-exile CHALKS OUT strategy for democratic transition
India TV NewsDalai Lama: The Tibetan government-in-exile claimed to have devised a strategy for a democratic transition in the Tibetan leadership in anticipation of China's meddling in the succession of the Dalai Lama. Speaking to the media, Penpa Tsering, the president of the Tibetan government-in-exile, noted that a repetition of the 1995 appointment of a rival Panchen Lama by the Communist government of China while a boy chosen by the Dalai Lama as the incarnate of the Lama was whisked away from the public eye, can not be negated. While the religious leadership remains with the Dalai Lama, since 2011, the political leadership of the Tibetan community has devolved on the directly elected Sikyong or president of the Tibetan government-in-exile. Till then, the temporal head of the Tibetan government-in-exile elected by the 'Kashag' or parliament-in-exile was 'Kalon Tripa' or Prime Minister with the Dalai Lama as the overall head.
