“A Tibetan national in the CMO is a threat to the national security and national security agencies should cross-check the facts,” Tatung demanded during his interaction with the media.
He alleged that Tsering was earlier a lower division clerk in the office of the Deputy Commissioner of Tawang when former chief minister Dorjee Khandu was the state’s power minister. He further alleged that Tsering is holding the posts of relief and rehabilitation deputy director and OSD in the Chief Minister’s office.

He alleged that the wife of the longest-serving OSD to the Chief Minister, Lham Tashi, is also a Tibetan and that he holds both Tibetan passport and an Indian passport.
