Tibetan refugees



Wikileaks.The US Embassy confirmed that the Dharamshala Reception Centre in Himachal Pradesh had processed over 87 thousand Tibetan refugees between 1980 and 2009 and that 46,620 of them returned to Tibet after a short pilgrimage in India. On an average 2,500 to 3,500 Tibetan refugees arrive every year but most of them return, the cable maintained. Those who stay back are often children who then attend schools run by Tibetans.Tribune
