The Tibetan Communist PartyTemplate:Efn was a small communist party in Tibet which functioned in secrecy under various names. The group was founded by Phuntsok Wangyal and Ngawang Kesang in 1943. It emerged from a group called the Tibetan Democratic Youth League, formed by Wangyal and other Tibetan students in Lhasa in 1939.[1][2]
The party sought to establish an independent and socialist Tibet encompassing the three traditional regions of Tibet: Ü-Tsang, Kham, and Amdo.[1][3] The party contacted the Soviet embassy in Beijing and asked for the Soviets' assistance as it began planning a socialist uprising in Tibet. Wangyal later contacted the Chinese Communist Party and the Communist Party of India.[4]
The Tibetan communists prepared guerrilla struggles against the ruling Kuomintang while promoting democratic reforms inside Tibet.
In 1949, the party merged into the Chinese Communist Party.[5]
