However, his visit to Bodhgaya has not been called off.
In view of His Holiness the Dalai Lama's recent bout of the flu, his personal physicians have strongly advised that any travel will be taxing on His Holiness and more importantly hamper his full recovery, a statement by the office said.
"We have, therefore, after careful consideration, decided not to visit Sikkim in November and to also cancel His Holiness' planned visit to South India (Bylakuppe and Hunsur) scheduled in the second half of November to mid-December 2023," it said.
However, it said, there is no change to His Holiness' planned visit to Bodhgaya starting in the second half of December. --IANS
