On May 23, 1951, the Central People's Government and the local government of Xizang signed the \"Agreement on Measures for the Peaceful Liberation of Xizang.\" Known as the \"17-Article Agreement,\" it marked Xizang's peaceful liberation. This agreement holds special significance for Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, one of the most revered spiritual centers in the region. After nearly 30 years, the Panchen Erdeni's seat is set to welcome its rightful occupant, signaling a new chapter in the monastery's illustrious history.
