Posted on by

Lok Sabha passed the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Amendment) Bill, 2022 on March 28, 2022. The Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Amendment) Bill, 2022 proposes the “Darlong” community as a sub-tribe of “Kuki” in the list of Scheduled Tribes in Tripura.

Key Points to Remember-

The Tripura state government had requested to include the “Darlong” community as a sub-tribe of “Kuki” in entry 9 in the list of Scheduled Tribes in respect of the State of Tripura.

Based on this recommendation, it was proposed to modify the list of Scheduled Tribes in respect to Tripura state by amending the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950.

The Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order (Amendment) Bill, 2022 proposes to amend Part XV-Tripura of the Schedule to the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950 to insert the “Darlong” community as a sub-tribe of “Kuki” after item (iii) Chhalya in entry 9 in the list of Scheduled Tribes of Tripura.
