Summary:
Organised by Tibetan Women Association (TWA), this peace march marks 24 years of the disappearance of Tibetan spiritual leader Panchen Lama – Gendun Choekyi Nyima, orchestrated by Chinese regime. Apart from this peace march, TWA organised four other peace marches involving women to make people aware of Chinese aggression in Tibet. In order to bring global attention to human right violations in Tibet, over 80 elderly women marched from Dharamshala to Chandigarh on Wednesday. “The Panchen Lama was just 6-years-old, when Chinese authorities abducted him and his family in 1995. Over last two decades, China is continuously refusing to divulge the whereabouts of Lama,” said Kalsang Youdon, Vice President, Central TWA..
