Guwahati: The Takam Mising Porin Kebang is pushing to bring the Mising Autonomous Council under the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. They want this done within one year. This move targets better political rights and stronger autonomy for the Mising community.
TMPK president Tilak Doley plans to rally elected representatives from all 40 council constituencies once the election results drop on December 3. A delegation will meet the Assam Chief Minister on December 4 to demand these constitutional safeguards. The pressure is on.
Doley expressed gratitude toward political parties backing their candidates in the current election cycle. He also highlighted the support from residents and local leaders in Jonai. The area saw TMPK-backed candidates secure two unopposed victories. Doley stated, "The organisation said it would continue to work towards securing the community's political rights through the proposed Sixth Schedule inclusion."
