leader, the Dalai Lama, along with thousands of refugees to Dharamshala

with religious education and other rehabilitation centres mushroomed
all over the Mcleadganj. As Dharamshala became the headquarter of
the Tibetan Government in exile, headed by Dalai Lama, it gained prominence
all over the world and prominent personalities started arriving here.
