As Bodoland prepares for the September 22 BTC elections, UPPL president and BTC chief Pramod Boro emphasizes peace, development, and inclusion after decades of unrest. He highlighted his administration’s five-year achievements, including resolving long-pending land issues, strengthening democracy, and protecting the identity and culture of 26 communities. Boro contrasted this with the violence and authoritarianism of previous regimes, asserting that political will can solve long-neglected problems. The UPPL organized a massive rally in Mushalpur, showing public support. In 2020, UPPL and BJP governed jointly, but this election both parties are contesting independently for the 40-seat Bodoland Territorial Council.
