Hundreds of Tibetan exiles gather in New Delhi to protest China’s new Ethnic Unity and Progress Law. Reports say many participants shave their heads as part of the demonstration, while others participate in prayers and chants during the rally.
The protest is described as organised by Tibetan groups and draws attention from the Tibetan exile community in India. Outlets agree on the location and scale of the gathering, noting that it occurs on Thursday, 20 August. While both accounts frame the action as a denunciation of Beijing’s law, they focus differently on specific elements: one emphasizes the shaving of heads among exiles, while the other highlights the combination of shaved-head symbolism and prayers.
