We have no information regarding the proposed meeting between the US officials and the Dalai Lama,' Rinpoche told IANS.

Sources in the Dalai Lama's office said that modalities regarding the meeting between the Buddhist monk and the US president 'are being worked out'.

The Dalai Lama's secretary Tenzin Taklha has said: 'I don't want to comment regarding the meeting between the Dalai Lama and Obama. Yes this is right that the Dalai Lama is visiting US in October to deliver lectures and to attend functions there.'
