💨 Abstract

Chinese authorities have escalated their suppression of Tibetan Buddhism, forcefully transferring hundreds of young monks from Kirti Monastery to state-run boarding schools in Ngaba County, Sichuan Province. The students, aged 6 to 17, are held in conditions akin to prisons, learning only Mandarin, and are barred from contacting their parents or leaving the school premises. Escaping students face harsh punishment.
