SIBLAC Urges Sikkim Government to Facilitate Karmapa's Return to Rumtek Monastery
The Sikkim Bhutia Lepcha Apex Committee (SIBLAC) has urged the Sikkim government to promptly engage in high-level talks to facilitate the return of the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorjee, to Rumtek Monastery. The committee highlighted the Karmapa's ongoing visit to Bhutan as a key opportunity and reminded the government of its electoral promise. SIBLAC also questioned the status of a previous government initiative involving funds for a delegation to support the Karmapa's return, noting a lack of public updates on its progress.
