The Dalai Lama will attend his birthday celebrations on July 6. Tashi, spokesperson of the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), in a press statement here said they were planning to make this year's birthday of the Dalai Lama a high-profile event. The birthday would also be celebrated to mark the historic devolution of his political authority to the democratically-elected Tibetan leadership and the conferment of the prestigious Templeton Prize on the Dalai Lama. He said, “We have invited the Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh and over 150 district and local authorities to share the special moment with our Indian brethren.”
