In a historic move, Assam has embraced peace by formalizing agreements with three Kuki militant factions and one Hmar group, marking a significant shift away from ethnic militancy. These pacts pave the way for community welfare councils and introduce financial support for rehabilitation and development, echoing similar recent deals made with groups like the Bodo and Karbi.
