1959年，十四世達賴喇嘛流亡到印度達蘭薩拉之後成立西藏流亡政府。喺達蘭薩拉，達賴喇嘛重新成立咗噶廈呢個機構，相當於西方國家嘅內閣。噶廈曾經直屬達賴喇嘛領導之下，直到2011年先結束呢個局面。
In 1959, the 14th Dalai Lama went into exile in Dharamsala, India, and established the Tibetan government-in-exile. In Dharamsala, the Dalai Lama re-established the Kashag as an institution, equivalent to the cabinet of Western countries. The Kashag was under the Dalai Lama's leadership until 2011.
