Thadous of Assam Reaffirm Commitment to Manipur's Unity and Peace
The Thadous of Assam, from the Dima Hasao and Karbi Anglong districts, proudly reaffirm our unwavering commitment to the unity and integrity of Manipur. Assam and Manipur have shared a peaceful border for generations, bound by mutual respect and shared indigenous heritage.
On August 6, 2025, representatives from Thadou Inpi Assam, along with leaders from both Dima Hasao and Karbi Anglong, attended the historic Thadou Inpi Manipur-Manipur CSOs Covenant of Understanding. This landmark event, part of the "Road to Peace" meeting in Imphal, proved that genuine dialogue can overcome even the most difficult challenges.
We state this clearly: Thadous are not Kuki. We seek rightful acknowledgment of our distinct identity. We are indigenous people of both Assam and Manipur, with deep historical ties to these lands.
The Thadou people have a rich and well-documented history in both Manipur and Assam. In Manipur, our chiefs bravely protected the kingdom's freedom, and our commitment to the state's integrity under the Indian Union remains steadfast. The distinct Thadou identity has been consistently recognized in every Indian census for Manipur since 1881. Similarly, Thadous in Assam have a proud history, which includes the establishment of the Thadou Mazaudar institution as early as 1886, which is still active under the Assam state government.
Despite attempts by certain Kuki supremacist groups to undermine our position and distinct Thadou identity, we will not waver. Our commitment to indigenous unity and peaceful coexistence in both Assam and Manipur is absolute.
We stand in full solidarity with the Thadou Inpi Manipur's "Road to Peace" initiative. We thank the Manipur CSOs for their openness and for embracing the Thadou people as an indigenous community of Manipur.
The Thadous of Assam will remain steadfast, united in our purpose to protect the dignity and future of our people and respect the unity and integrity of Manipur.
