Doje Cezhug, Lhasa Mayor & NPC Deputy said "The unrest was provoked by a handful of monks and lawless persons engaged in beating, smashing, looting and burning. They burnt down schools, hospitals, stores and other public utilities. These acts are completely targeted at disturbing the happy and stable life of people in Tibet. The government is able to maintain stability for the people."
