The dilemma over the next Dalai Lama | The Hindu

In the 1950s, a large part of Tibet had been forcefully acquired by the Chinese. The Dalai Lama escaped to India in 1959 after a Tibetan uprising against the Chinese rule failed.
He also established a democratically based shadow Tibetan government in Dharamshala. However, the question of Dalai Lama’s succession bothers thousands of Tibetans who have made their home in McLeodganj, nicknamed ‘little Lhasa’.
