In 1993, the Bodoland Autonomous Council (BAC) Accord was signed but Bodoland movement has not been contained by signing of the Accord. In February 2003, the Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) came into existence. But the violence, which erupted in 2012 and 2014 between Bodos and Muslims indicates that Bodo problem still persists in this region and new Accord did not satisfy non-Bodos in the BTC. The present article is an attempt to understand the ethnic autonomy movements in the North-East region of India with special reference to the Bodo problem. - Reproduced.
