A Tibetan activist died after setting himself on fire outside the United Nations headquarters in New York in what Tibetan exile groups described as a protest for Tibetan independence. The activist, identified as Lobga Rangzen, carried a Tibetan flag before the incident. The protest came days after China enacted its new Ethnic Unity Law, which has drawn concern from the United States, the European Union and Tibetan groups. Beijing says the law promotes national unity, while critics argue it could further weaken Tibetan identity, language and culture. Daniela Laurel tells you more on Firstpost Live.
