All Bodo Students’ Union (ABSU) in its 52nd annual convention on December 23 in Serfanguri (Kokrajhar) strongly opposed implementation of Clause 6 of the Assam Accord 1985 in its present form and also opposed the move of granting ST status to six communities of Assam, reports Assam Tribune. ABSU claimed that Clause 6 of the Assam Accord of 1985 in its present form is meant for the Assamese-speaking community and therefore it would be acceptable only if rectifications are made at the appropriate level to include safeguarding of all the ethnic and tribal communities of Assam, otherwise it is unacceptable.In another resolution, the ABSU urged the Government of Assam not to impose Assamese language on the Bodo medium schools of Assam and also for Bodo students studying in other medium schools.However, ABSU welcomed the government’s decision to create autonomous and development councils for various ethnic communities of the State.
