Dharamsala : Chinese President Hu Jintao’s visit to India for the BRICS summit was greeted here with protest banners and shuttered Tibetan shops.
Most shops in the town’s suburb McLeodganj — also known as “Little Lhasa” — downed their shutters as the community expressed its opposition to China’s rule over Tibet.
The streets have been lined with banners and posters with photographs of those who have self-immolated themselves in Tibet.
A prayer session was held close to the official palace of the Dalai Lama.
India is home to around 100,000 Tibetans.
