Dharamshala Tibetans celebrate Women's Day in Dharamshala
Dharamshala: The Tibetan government-in-exile last week celebrated Tibetan Women's Day in Indian city of Dharamshala.
President of Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) Lobsang Sangay including his cabinet ministers and women staff members of different departments of the government-in-exile gathered to mark the Tibetan Women's Day, reports ANI.
Interestingly, CTA recognized Mar 12 as 'Tibetan Women's Day' in 2017.
"We feel that women are equal to men and we have given equal opportunities to them. There should be equal leadership from the women side as well so this year the theme is COVID-19," Lobsang Sangay told ANI.
"So if you look at globally, the pandemic is handled better by women leaders from Germany to Taiwan, from Finland to New Zealand compared to most of the infected countries in the world led by a man," he added.
