The Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) region committee of All Assam Gorkha Students’ Union (AAGSU) sought the Assam Governor’s intervention into inclusion of nominated six members to the BTC Legislative Assembly.
The students’ union resented that even after three years of the tenure of the present BTC administration, the posts of six nominated members have not been filled till date. A three-member delegation of BTC region committee of AAGSU recently called on Governor Jagdish Mukhi at Raj Bhawan and exhorted him to take initiatives to provide land pattas to the Gorkha people in BTC and also to reserve two BTC seats for Gorkha candidates in BTC.
