With elections to the Tiwa Autonomous Council approaching, the newly formed Tiwa Jatiya Mancha, an initiative of Tiwa national organisations, has announced plans to field candidates in every constituency.
At a convention held at the Morigaon District Library auditorium, the organisation issued an open warning to Morigaon MLA and former Tiwa Autonomous Council Executive Member Ramakanta Deuri, threatening to break his legs if he participates in election campaign meetings in any council constituency.
The warning came amid reports that Deuri is considering contesting the upcoming Tiwa Autonomous Council elections once again.
The Tiwa Jatiya Mancha blamed Deuri's statements and alleged role for the prevailing instability within the Tiwa Autonomous Council.
The organisation further warned that it would adopt a strong stance against the MLA if he attempted to interfere in the functioning of the autonomous council.
The aggressive statements have triggered discussion in political circles ahead of the upcoming council elections, with tensions surrounding the Tiwa Autonomous Council becoming increasingly prominent.
