Dharamshala: The reconvening of the 6th session of the 17th Tibetan Parliament-in-Exile, initially scheduled to resume the outstanding agenda of the general session from 25 to 29 December 2023, has been rescheduled to take place from 13 to 16 March 2024.
This delay stems from the unavailability of the necessary quorum required for the session to be officially constituted, as 16 Parliamentarians have taken leave of absence.
The honourable members of the 17th Tibetan Parliament-in-Exile are hereby informed of this development and are kindly requested to register their attendance at the Parliamentary Secretariat on 12 March 2024.
The decision to postpone the general session aligns with the provisions outlined in Article 49, clause (II) of the Charter of Tibetans in Exile – In case a meeting of the Tibetan Parliament had to be adjourned for more than seven days due to the absence of the requisite quorum for the purpose, the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker shall together take a decision to adjourn the meeting.
