In Assam, the Bodoland region has limped back to normalcy after three decades of violence, insurgency and conflict over demand for an independent nation. Locals say peace returned after the 2020 Bodo accord - a pact between the central government, Assam government and Bodo groups.
A string of startups, a push for sports, and employment are reviving the region. But the border towns still remain in the clutches of their past with dilapidated roads and dismal medical, water and educational facilities.
Traversing the far regions of Assam, EastMojo’s Karma Paljor hit the Gorkha village of Saralpara, which is flanked by several Adivasi and Bodo villages. Locals told him that the only road to their village hasn’t been repaired in decades, citing forest NOCs and a lack of central government funds or budgets.
The village, which is only powered by solar panels, faces a power crisis during extreme weather. It has a primary school with two teachers for a strength of 80 students, and a health centre with one nurse to cater to over 12,000 people. Water resources are also scarce in the village.
The situation worsens during monsoons, with no power, poor connectivity of roads, and a lack of medical facilities.
Watch.

Bodoland needs separate State for betterment of Bodo's
if not the indigenous communities such as the Bodo's, Koches, Rabha etc then who else will claim this land here the refugees? Most of the Nepali settlers in Saralpara have come from Bhutan and settled, its not like they were Indian citizens since Independence. There's no grudge against Nepalese who are genuinely settled and citizens of this country. Please don't narrate it as if the Bodo's have no right at all.
Yes they are refugees . Newslaundry should have tell this in their news too
Bodos in nepal are tribes and gorkhas in bodoland are reffugees fuck your criminal mindset
Not just in bodoland the nepali people have been flooded in many tribal lands in assam and other northeastern states. And in many places they started laying claim upon the indigenous peoples lands. Not hating against nepali people but any large scale migration is harmful to the indigenous tribal people.
I don't know why illegal migrants from Nepal are given the status of indigenous people of Assam. I'm not against the genuine Indian citizen
@@lachithazarika1142 its vote bank politics bro. Those illegal nepalis have grown so comfortable in assam so that now they dare to even demand the st status. Imagine such a large scale population of nepali people are given st status then what will happen of the small indigenous tribes of assam.
Hope one day our dream BODOLAND comes true
It will surely come only when there is a unity and real effort to fulfil that which we don't have and neither will according to me.
Love from Kokrajhar Bodoland
Great to see Bodoland Territorial Region I request News Laundry to go to chirang (Bengtol) it’s way more lovely n lovely peoplealso Last elected M.P Naba Kumar sarania from Kokrajhar wasn’t a Tribal he made a fake ST certificate and contested from this place . He was not allowed to contest this time thankfully . There are many villages where there is still no electricity in bodo areas development is all F uped in Bodo areas
Good to see Karma sir after long time, used to watch him on news channel.
Congress never bothered Boro people out there and also to tribal communities. So they turned into BJP. BJP gave them BTR. Now they have peace. They should given a separate State. Any government that supports and gives them a state they will turn to that government. They had been asking for statehood and for their language for decades now. Which turned them into extremism. They are peaceful people and demanding for their rights and identity. The government should give them their rights. Congress needs to realize that. They have regional parties, they will go with any government that supports them. By the way, Newslaundry don't try to say Bodo claims it's their land... It is their land. Other adivasis and Nepalis were taken from bordering Nepal and Jharkhand to those places for the tea plantations by the Britishers. And everyone knows about Bangladeshi immigration. It was all Bodos territory. They had kings all over. Coochvihar Rajbari, Dimapur, and other places they have evidence.
Bodoland alag state hona sahiye taki hum aur bhi developed ho sake
🤔🤔🤔🤔
Konitu😂😂😂
Sorry awn nwnkhw mejwng mwnbai
So no Bodoland state
@@asaduddinowaisi_gharwapsi , Dimapur state
Lots of support to Bodoland State from Gorkhaland, India 🇮🇳
Congratulations on this thought full highly thought provoking episode
Pray for the democracy is protected
Northeast union needs more States for the betterment for the various Northeastern communities.
We need development ❤ Government must be take action
Owe Thanks Mann❤❤
Comprehensive coverage! Well done.
They were expelled from Bhutan
And settled in Assam and north Bengal.
Whome are you talking about?

Bhai whatsapp se zyada mat par. Kabhi kitabe bhi pada kar. Agar tera itihas jhar na pada na, tu royega. Dimaag ka istimal kar kabhi samjha. Agar pura information pata nahi hai, to mu chup rakh.
Do u think gorkha r in bhutan from before they r in bengal 😂. They first settled from east nepal , darjeeling hills of Sikkim to doars partially excluded territory by british n migrated to bhutan. When doars became part of bengal in 1956 after british left the area they became part of bengal unlike crores of bangladeshi refugee settled after formation of UNO recognised country. Regrading settled from bhutan , few thousand settled in bodoland but not bengal as bengal govt was not welcoming to them unlike to Bangladeshi hindu n muslim refugee. most of remaining settled in east nepal n when nepal could not give citizenship as they were not born in Nepal but bhutan , Christian countries usa , Australia took as refugee. Donot blabber anything without knowing. Read UNO report.
And you are originally from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.. I'm sure
The Nepalese community have been termed as settlers in Assam, but in reality it is not so. The Nepalese community in Assam have been residing since before 1947. During the year 1943, a delegation of Nepali community from Assam met Dambarsingh Gurung of Kalimpong, the then representative of the Nepali community in the Indian parliament. One of the things they raised was the lack of education facilities for the Nepali community in Assam. Then Assam was under the muslim league government. It is disheartening to see such deplorable condition of a community who've been residing in Assam since before the Independence.
Rare reporting.. 👏 💖
🤍☯️nice coverage... Hats off🤍
we love Gorkha nepali community and bodo community we are all human and respect each other each community
Very good coverage
Good job sir✨❣️
This news article is puting limelight only on Gorkha community.., why not focus on the Boros themselves who are the earliest indigenous people of the region??!
The India we don’t see. Thanks for sharing.
No Bodoland no rest
Hope BTR prospers under the present dispensation. They should improve connectivity to all the border areas to bring development to all these areas.
I love bodo ❤❤
This are the real issues we are hidden off
Thank you for it but I’m so sorry and worried that how much of our Assamese people will watch it
“Bodos claims this land to be theirs” so, what do you really wanted to say? When encroacher will outnumber the Bodo’s in near future, then perhaps you may question our existence too? And surprisingly you haven’t questioned and mentioned about Bhutanese Refugees who have settled between 1988 to 1993.
Nice, Karma.
❤❤ ❤
The Environmental issues which no one wants to discuss. Not well researched.
Seems like one sided paid story
👍
Welcome to Bodoland ❤
Great.. Hearts.. Great... Gorkha... Fearless.. Gorkha.. Is.. Worrier.. We.. Likes.. Us... 😡😡😡
Movement for an independent nation? I wonder if this was an honest, or perhaps a deliberate mistake.
❤️🌱
Karma come to Barpeta Constituency, its a very confusing situation here😅
I am a bodo boy🙂🙂
Its like saying 'Nepalese claim the whole of Nepal, but it is also home for many other communities.'
Shame on the leaders, politicians...
Subtle instigation in the pretext of peace is a new low for a respected journalist. Kindly, realise the history of the Bodo people for the last 2000 years and then make a statement on whether it is simply a "claim over the land or a matter of historical fact". The Bodo accords accommodate the squatters in this reserved region despite their coercive settlement. And here we have questioned the authorities for not paying attention to those who have settled in a sensitive zone which normally would not have been encouraged by any sensible being.
Please refrain from making bogus and unresearched content because of personal feelings.
Education systems is dying in holl Assam 😢😢😢😢😢
Mention that the region is under BTC(Bodoland Teritorrial Council) with dignity.
If people will go and settle in forest area , why blame govt for not giving facilities. They are aquiring animals homeland.
When you give microphone to a person not native, who doesn't know the culture, history, sacrifices. Its like a giving monkey to sing a song😂
We are not claiming re baba this land belongs to us historically . We all know why Bhutan Expelled Nepalese in the Past and How Assam embrace them and why we see their large population. We are not Against any Nepale here But tagging a Line and Saying that Bodo's have claim on this land is very unfortunate reporting. Please Refrain from tagging such line to us .
We need Bodoland
Why don't y'all evaluate the work of UPA era.
Why they can't develop such border districts.
If your news are biased than our reactions will be biased too.
Nepali lai indian le sadhai hepxa indian nai vaye ni
Kya hepxa ? Most of the Nepalis living near Bhutan borderlines were expelled from Bhutan. They are refugees.
Nepal should accept them
@@souravbanerjee8188 arey arey look who's here ?? A bangaladeshi who's own identity is at stake??
Talking about Gorkhas , Marathas , Rajasthani, Kumaoni , gharwali, gujjar, haryanvi, dogra , hindu Punjabi , and all those Hindi belt region are the real bhoomiputra. They all uses devnagari script, these communities are patriotic and sole owner of Indian land. Indian army me kisi ko Bangla ata nahi hai par Nepali , Punjabi , Hindi is widely accepted. Abb bata kon refugee hai aur kon nahi ??
Your not getting me, a warrior clan will always be a warrior clan.
Btw what's up with conservative muslim in Kolkata, aren't they supporting your liberalism in Kolkata. I hope they do 😁
@@user-awiseman1hdhdhshsjshs itna desh bhakt hai Nepali ,toh nepal ko Bharat ka hissa kyu nehi banate?
Kya fayda devnagri lipi ka jab nepal me tiranga hi nehi lehraya to..
Nepal me bhi 26th January ko republic day manana chahiye 15th August ko swatantrata divas manana chahiye
Hindu Bengali logon ne 1947 west Bengal (Hindu majority part of Bengal) ko Bharat me milaya. Par nepal Hindu majority hokar bhi alag hai ... Aaj kal to Nepal chaina k godi me baith gaya..
@@souravbanerjee8188 geda.. sitting at home and spreading hatred against gorkhas.
@@souravbanerjee8188 merey bangladeshi bhai yehi toh swag hai Nepali ka unko koi kangressi ka certificate nahi chahiye. First of all Indian tri colour isn't represent indian Hindus , nepali flag represent more Hinduism then so called kangressi tricolour. Rss flag is the real flag of Bharat par app bangladeshi South Indian ke karan Hindus of India had to accept tri colour jhanda. Tu samjha nahi Nepal independent bahut phele se tha jab tumari Bangladeshi population ko Arabs ne Colonized banaya. Nepal have every right to do whatever they want cuz they are a separate nation but being a bangali inside Bharath, bangali can't even speak their own language inside their own territory. Ever noticed why GOI put up more military bases in West Bengal, Tamil Nadu , Jammu Kashmir and some NE States (silchar) then other states ?? Kuinki unne patta hai sabse jada liberal taatu kaha rehte hai ??
Nepali
This is treatment of ethnic gorkhas In india.😢
Saralpara gorkhas are Bhutanese refugees persecuted by Bhutan . They are not ethnic
👍
