In a major political development, parties and leaders from across the Northeast have united to form a singular political entity aiming to voice the region’s concerns and represent people’s aspirations. The alliance comprises key figures such as Meghalaya CM Conrad K Sangma, BJP spokesperson Mmhonlumo Kikon, TIPRA Motha leader Pradyot Manikya, and Daniel Langthasa of the People’s Party of Assam.
The platform seeks to embolden the Northeast’s leverage on issues like autonomy, infrastructure development, resource sharing, and cultural preservation. This marks a rare show of unity, moving beyond the party lines.

“We, leaders from different states of the Northeast, have come together today to make a collective and historic announcement i.e. the coming together of various voices of our region to form a united, singular political entity that truly represents the aspirations of our people,” said a joint statement issued by the leaders.
“For too long, we, the younger generation leaders of Northeast, have spoken about the same issues and concerns of our people, but from different platforms and political spaces. We have realised that our strength lies in unity, and that it is time to give our people one collective voice,” it added.
Taking inspiration from the vision and legacy of great leaders who fought selflessly for the identity and development of our land, we have resolved to carry forward their ideals by coming together under a shared vision for the future of the North East, the statement stated further.
“Today’s announcement marks the first step towards building this common platform. To take this initiative forward, we have decided to constitute a committee that will deliberate on the future course of action, including the modalities and structure of the proposed political entity,” it added.
