Tibetans in exile march in solidarity with Dalai Lama in India

Tibetans marched in the Indian city of Dharamsala on April 17, 2023, in support of their spiritual leader-in-exile, the Dalai Lama, who has come under fire for asking a boy to "suck his tongue". Some netizens described the incident as "absolutely sick”, while a member of Tibet’s parliament-in-exile likened it to child’s play. The Dalai Lama issued an apology on April 10. Similar marches of support have been held across India as well as in other countries, according to officials from the government in exile.
