Consensus on most recommendations of Assam Accord Clause 6: State govt.

The Hindu | English | News | Nov. 25, 2025 | UndeterminedPolitical Policy Resistance

The Assam government and the All Assam Students’ Union (AASU) have reached consensus on most recommendations of a high-level committee set up to implement Clause 6 of the Assam Accord of 1985. Clause 6 pertains to providing constitutional, legislative, and administrative safeguards to protect the cultural, social, and linguistic identity of the Assamese people. The third round of discussions, chaired by Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, took place recently.

The high-level committee was appointed by the Ministry of Home Affairs in February 2020 and headed by retired Gauhati High Court judge Biplab Kumar Sarma. It was tasked with suggesting ways to implement the provisions of this sensitive clause. The Assam government and AASU agreed on most state-level recommendations and decided to form a new review committee to ensure timely implementation.

Assam Accord Implementation Minister Atul Bora, who leads an eight-member sub-committee formed in 2021, stated that their group identified 67 recommendations from the high-level committee. Of these, 40 can be implemented by the State government, 15 only by the Centre, and 12 require joint implementation. The AASU has requested the formation of a monitoring committee and has also asked for a tripartite meeting with the State government and the Centre before January 31, 2026.
