Ering raising this issue since 2016 by introducing a private members’ bill for inclusion of these tribes in the Arunachal Pradesh ST list.
Recently, Ering communicated with the union home ministry’s registrar general and census commissioner, requesting for inclusion of these tribes in the state’s ST list.
“The registrar general was of the opinion that the ministry of tribal affairs, being the nodal ministry in matters pertaining to STs, can take a final decision regarding this issue,” Ering said.
Ering– Hopeful that Government shall include Yobin, Nocte, Tutsa, Tangsa and Wancho tribes in Central Government’s list of ST in time bound manner. It will benefit the people greatly and help in achieving tribal development.
