DHARAMSALA, India Aug 29 (Reuters) - Doctors looking after the Dalai Lama in India say there is "no cause for concern" about the health of the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader after he was admitted to hospital, according to one of his aides.

"He is doing fine. He is undergoing some checkups ... the doctors have told us that absolutely there is no cause for concern," Chhime Chhoekyapa, a senior aide to the Dalai Lama, told Reuters on Friday. (Reporting by Abhishek Madhukar; Editing by Alistair Scrutton)
