TIBET & MARADONA ⚽️✊🏽
We lost Diego Maradona 4yrs ago today

In 2008, Maradona boycotted the Beijing Olympic (only cheering for Argentina) & refused to carry the torch in Buenos Aires. He was supporting the biggest political uprising by Tibetans inside occupied Tibet protesting the CCP’s at the time

Tibetans are eternally grateful to India for the refuge!
In return, besides the presence of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, economic boost, military support, etc. we shared our culinary delicacies like Momo, Laphing, Thukpa, etc - popular street-foods helping many Indian families sustain
#ThankYouIndia
Thukpa, the perfect Tibetan hotpot that found its place in Indian kitchens
