What is "khangchenne"

Khangchenné Sonam Gyalpo (died 5 August 1727) was the first important representative of the noble house Gashi in Tibet. Between 1721 and 1727 he led the Tibetan cabinet ( Kashag, ) that governed the country during the period of Qing rule of Tibet. He was eventually murdered by his peers in the cabinet, which triggered a bloody but brief civil war. The nobleman Polhané Sönam Topgyé came out as the victor and became the new ruling prince of Tibet under the Chinese protectorate.
