(TibetanReview.net, Feb13’25) –China is said to have expelled more than 1,000 monks and nuns from the world’s biggest centre for the study of Tibetan Buddhism located in Serthar (Chinese: Seda) county, Sichuan province, and demolished monastic living quarters to limit the academy’s community to just 5,000 resident monks and nuns.
It was earlier stated by the Central Tibetan Administration at Dharamshala, India, Dec 27, 2024, that China had deployed some 400 troops at the Larung Five Sciences Buddhist Academy on Dec 20. This was stated to be accompanied by a helicopter surveillance operation, signalling an intensification of monitoring activities at the academy.
