The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) aims to confuse the global public and delegitimise Dharamshala’s religious authority, top intelligence sources have told CNN-News18. Its ultimate goal is to demonstrate China’s soft power expansion in Buddhist-majority regions and across the world where Buddhist seats are present, they added.
The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is implementing a dual-front strategy in Tibet, involving systematic repression and cultural erasure in Lhasa, said the sources. “On one front, the CCP is transforming Lhasa into a surveillance-heavy, Han-dominated city. On the other front, it seeks total control over Tibetan spiritual succession, aiming to impose a Communist Party-approved successor to the 14th Dalai Lama. This includes China’s appointment of its own Panchen Lama, bypassing the legitimate selection made by the Dalai Lama," a source said.
