Passed on 21 October 1959 during the 834th plenary meeting, Resolution 1353[1] expressed grave concerns about the violation of the Tibetan people's fundamental human rights and freedoms, and cited official statement made by the 14th Dalai Lama.
Passed on 20 December 1961 during the 1085th plenary meeting, Resolution 1723[2] solemnly called for the cessation of violating the Tibetan people's rights including right to self-determination.
