Successor to Dalai Lama needs approval: Beijing
Hindustan Times Thane
|July 03, 2025
China on Wednesday rejected the Dalai Lama's succession plan, insisting that any future heir must receive its seal of approval, adding a new chapter to Tibetan Buddhism's decades-long struggle with the Chinese ruling Communist Party.
BEIJING:
The Tibetan spiritual leader on Wednesday said the institution of the Dalai Lama will continue and only the Gaden Phodrang Trust—founded by his office in 2015—will have the authority to recognize the future reincarnation, ending speculation whether he will have a successor or not after his death. His announcement ahead of his 90th birthday on Sunday is set to intensify tensions with Beijing.
