The non-bodo people living in the BTC region have been deprived of their due rights in BTC region and it is only through acquiring political power that the people could readdress their issues.

Non-Boro is not just a term it is now a sentiment and voice of the non-bodos of BTC. This was observed by Kokrajhar MP, Naba Kumar Sarania at a felicitation ceremony organized by All Koch-Rajbongshi Students’ Union (AKRSU) Udalguri (West) chapter here at Chilarai Bhawan in Tangla on Thursday.
