Thousands of Tibetans gathered in Himachal Pradesh’s Dharamshala on Sunday, 10 March, to commemorate 60 years of the Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule that drove the Dalai Lama into exile.

Supporters of the spiritual leader gathered in Dalai Lama’s temple in mountainous Dharamshala, where the government-in-exile was established after fleeing the deadly Chinese crackdown in Tibet in 1959.
