History Behind Headlines: Dalai Lama | Episode - 09 | 14 July, 2025

Sansad Tv

The programme looks deep into the  history of Tibetan Buddhism and the Institution of Dalai Lama. In July 2025, tensions between China and the Tibetan Government-in-Exile reached a fresh peak over a deeply spiritual and politically sensitive matter — the next Dalai Lama. Chinese authorities restated their claim that Beijing alone has the right to determine the reincarnation of the next Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism. In immediate response, the Tibetan Government-in-Exile, based in Dharamshala, India, rejected China’s assertions outright, reiterating that only the current 14th Dalai Lama has the spiritual authority to decide on the matter.
