It comes after the Dalai Lama sparked outrage over remarks he made in an interview broadcast by the BBC in 2019. In interviews, the controversial monk said that if his successor was a woman, she would have to be “attractive”. The comments sparked widespread outrage around the world, for which he later apologized.
