Centre provides Z-category security to Dalai Lama after threat assessment

The central government has granted Z-category security to the Dalai Lama following a recent threat analysis report by the Intelligence Bureau,according to reports.

The Tibetan spiritual leader’s security will now be overseen by the CRPF, ensuring a more coordinated and enhanced protection system in response to updated intelligence and potential risks.

The Dalai Lama, a globally revered figure and the spiritual head of Tibetan Buddhism, has been living in India since 1959 after fleeing Tibet in the wake of the Chinese occupation.

His presence in India has remained a point of contention in Sino-Indian relations, with Beijing frequently criticizing his global engagements and influence.
