A south zone Tibetan parliamentary delegation has called on the Deputy Chief Minister of Goa on Sunday [01 September 2013] as a part of the “Solidarity with Tibet” campaign that started last year. 

The six-member delegation apprised Mr Francisco D’Souza, Deputy Chief Minister of Goa of the worsening situation inside Tibet and the series of self-immolation protests by Tibetans since 2009, while urging the Indian government and its people to raise the issue of Tibet at various governmental and non-governmental platforms. 

Lobsang Yeshi, Tibetan MP and member of the delegation, told Phayul that D’Souza expressed his “solidarity” with the Tibetan people and assured that Tibet would achieve its goal soon.

“There is no greater human rights violation in the world than in Tibet and the world is not doing justice to the Tibetans,” D’Souza was quoted as saying.
