The Lhasa Municipal People's Government (Chinese: 拉萨市人民政府) is the local administrative agency of Lhasa, located at 69 Jiangsu Avenue, Chengguan District, Lhasa. It is officially elected by the Lhasa Municipal People's Congress and is formally responsible to the People's Government of the Tibet Autonomous Region and its Standing Committee.

History

[edit]

Prior to 1959, Lhasa was predominantly governed by the Kashag and lacked a representative government. In 1960, following the democratic reform of Tibet, Lhasa was officially created, and the Lhasa Municipal People's Government was instituted.[1] In 1965, the Lhasa Municipal People's Government was restructured into the Lhasa Municipal People's Committee; on September 10, 1968, this committee was transformed into the Lhasa Municipal Revolutionary Committee, which was subsequently reverted to the People's Government in 1982.[2]
