TINSUKIA: In a significant development for the Moran community residing along the Assam–Arunachal Pradesh border, caste certificates were distributed to eligible members, recognizing them as permanent residents of Assam or descendants with ancestral roots in the state.
The initiative, which addresses a long-standing demand of the community, was facilitated through the dedicated efforts of Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma, as highlighted by Pijush Hazarika. Speaking on the occasion, Hazarika expressed satisfaction at fulfilling the long-pending requirement of the Moran community, who had faced numerous challenges over the years.
The distribution ceremony was organised by the Tinsukia District Administration in collaboration with the All Moran Students’ Union, Assam Moran Sabha, and other organisations. The event took place at Balijan Public Auditorium in Philobari, marking a milestone in the community’s recognition and empowerment.
