Mizoram’s Zoram People’s Movement, that governs the state, Nagaland’s Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party, and Asom Gana Parishad, the BJP’s junior partner in Assam, are not part of the proposed political entity.
We, leaders from different states of the North East, have come together today to make a collective and historic announcement, i.e., the coming together of various voices of our region to form a united singular political entity that truly represents the aspirations of our people,” the leaders’ statement said.
A committee has been formed to deliberate on the future course of action, including the modalities and structure of the proposed political entity, it said.
