Concurring the auspicious 11th day of the 12th month of the lunar calendar, Gasa Dzongkhag is honored to receive new Lam Neten and Dasho Drangpoen in a low-key ceremony. Venerable Lam Neten Tshering Penjor is transferred from Daga Trashiyangtse Dratshang and will serve as Gasa Rabdhey’s Abbot. Dasho Sangay Chedup who previously served as Personal Secretary to Her Royal Highness Princess Sonam Dechan Wangchuck has officially joined Gasa District court as the Drangpoen. We have received Lam and Dasho in our traditional ceremony in presence of outgoing Lam Neten, Dasho Dzongda, former Dasho Drangpoen, LG leaders joined by some Dzongkhag and Regional staff. The devoted people joined the function to offer Tashi Khadar. Everyone present strictly followed health protocols to keep everyone safe.

We offer our prayers and humble wishes for their endeavors and may the people of Gasa be exceedingly furthered from their upright conducts.

We extend our hearty welcome and offer our humble wishes lah.
