Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama waves as he leaves the venue of Namami Brahmaputra festival in Guwahati (AP photo)
NEW DELHI: As China ramps up its rhetoric against the Dalai Lama's much-awaited trip to Arunachal Pradesh, an unfazed India says China has been shifting its position on Tawang, making its current position less credible.
Dalai Lama kicked off his 10-day visit to the north-east on Saturday, which will take him to numerous destinations in Arunachal Pradesh on what is a purely religious sojourn. According to his office, he will consecrate a new Tara temple in Lumla on Tuesday, followed by discourses and teachings in Dirang and Bomdila as well as in the capital Itanagar. All these areas have recently entered China's claim, but it is the spiritual leader's stay and teachings in the Tawang monastery from April 5-7 that is the focus of the Chinese government's ire.
