Dharamshala — The Tibetan monk Shersang Gyatso, abbot of Tsang Monastery in Ba County, northeastern Tibet, committed suicide to protest the Chinese government's recent crackdown on his monastery, which included raiding the monks' rooms, disrupting their studies and religious practices, organising Chinese political indoctrination sessions, and expelled all monks under the age of 18 from the monastery.
