The Tibetan Freedom Party is a small political party in Navi Bharat, based almost entirely in the autonomous Southland region, with some pockets in the large cities. The holds 33 seats in the Senate of the People, and rules in coalition with the Social Democratic Party of Navi Bharat. It's leader and current Deputy Prime Minster is Tharki Dzongkho.

The party's main platform is based on "Tibetan freedom and Buddhist democracy," a stance of social equality for the once-downtrodden Tibetan people and a politically liberal environment based on personal choice. The party is staunchly anti-business, and frown inherently on the concept of entrepeneurship, as it conflicts with their Buddhist ideals. Despite this large point of disagreement with the SDPNB, the parties have generally rules in coalition.
