The Peaceful Liberation enabled Tibet to repel the imperialist forces, ended the long-term isolation and stagnation of the Tibetan society, and initiated a new starting point for a modernized Tibetan society.

After the peaceful liberation in 1951, the People's Liberation Army and people from other parts of China working in Tibet persisted in carrying out the 17-Article Agreement and the policies of the Central Government, actively helped the Tibetan people build highways, water conservancy projects, modern factories, banks, trading companies, post offices, farms and schools. They adopted a series of measures to help the farmers and herdsmen expand production, started social relief and disaster relief programs, and provided free medical service for the prevention and treatment of epidemic and other diseases. All this has promoted the economic, social and cultural development of Tibet.
