The Tibetan Parliament-in-exile on Sunday observed the 60th anniversary of their people’s peaceful uprising against the Chinese occupiers of their homeland.

To honour the support they received from several countries, including India, Kashag (the highest executive office of the Central Tibetan Administration) designated 2018 as the year of gratitude. It began with ‘thank you, India’ and ended with ‘thank you, America’.

To ensure that the Tibetan struggle moves forward, the Kashag on Sunday dedicated 2019 as the year of commitment. The Tibetan Parliament-in-exile urged freedom-loving people to commit to end the oppression in Tibet and fight against impunity.
