Three distinquished candidates are now in frey for election for Kalon Tripa (English translation Prime Minister) of Tibetan Government based in Dharamsala, India. All three candidates brings in different attributes such as knowledge, experience, dedication, trustworthiness and academic background.
These attributes are necessary in any candidates seeking highest elected office. Perhaps we can say without any hesitation, this election is widely campaigned by the candidates themselves and by their ardent supporters through facebook and youtube. Thanks to technology, it has generated widespread awareness amongst youth and media.It goes without saying that because of unique nature of this election and the advancing age of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who has publicly expressed his desire to relinguish political responsibility and urge the  exiled Tibetans to take this election seriously.

We owe it to ourselves that we exercise our democratic right with utmost sense of responsibility and duty. We still have some times between now and the day we go to the polling booth, to study the candidates carefully. Whatever the outcome, the voice and will of the majority will previal. Afterall, this is what  we call DEMOCRACY.
