Dalai Lama Unveils Succession Plan, China Says Govt to Approve Successor | Spotlight | N18G

The exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, has announced his succession plan just days before his 90th birthday, reassuring followers that the 600-year-old institution will continue. In a video message, he affirmed that the responsibility for identifying the 15th Dalai Lama rests "exclusively" with the India-based Gaden Phodrang Trust, his official office. This statement comes as a significant relief to many Tibetans concerned about the future of their spiritual and political leadership. China, however, quickly rejected this, with its foreign ministry asserting that the Dalai Lama's reincarnation must be approved by the Chinese central government. Watch this video to know more.
