New Delhi, India, 10 April 2016 - On a warm afternoon today, His Holiness the Dalai Lama drove to the All India Fine Arts & Crafts Society near Parliament House to visit an exhibition of photographs entitled ‘Thank You Dalai Lama’. The photographs are the work of Vijay Kranti, photographer, journalist and a friend of Tibetans for more than 40 years. Kranti received His Holiness on the steps of the gallery as he stepped out of his car. He describes the exhibition as “An Indian photographer’s artistic tribute to the success story of a peaceful and brave refugee community, its monk leader the Dalai Lama and their magnanimous hosts — the people and Government of India.”
