TIWA STUDENTS' UNION PROTESTS IN MORIGAON, BLOCKS HIGHWAY OVER TRIBAL LAND RIGHTS & AUTONOMY

On Tuesday, members of the All Tiwa Students' Union (ATSU) staged a protest on National Highway 27 at Jagiroad, Morigaon District, blocking the road for nearly two hours. The protesters raised several demands, including the halt of the formation of the Jagiroad Town Committee, eviction of encroachers from tribal lands, and the inclusion of the Tiwa Autonomous Council in the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. A scuffle ensued between the protesters and police when authorities attempted to clear the blockade. Despite the clash, the protesters later submitted a memorandum to the Chief Minister through local officials, reiterating their demands.
