“I don’t know if I succeeded in what I set out to do. However, we’ve done all we could in the nine states that we crossed,” he was quoted as saying by Phayul.
Tenzin Dhondup told Phayul about the overwhelming end of his march, “When I first started, I hoped that people would join me on the march. This wish was eventually granted as I met Tenzin Nyima in Chandigarh and Tenzin Choephel in Siliguri and on the last day in Gangtok, there were around 80 people marching with me. I think this is my biggest achievement.”
