This visit was made after Education Kalon received consent from TCV Main Office for converting Lower TCV school into a temporary quarantine centre. Although the arrangements for home comers were made at Neylenkhang cum Training Center under the direction of Kashag through DoHe (CTA). However, with the increasing number of Tibetans returning home each day, there is further need for an additional facility in Dharamshala area.
