Autonomous regions of India
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are three autonomous regions in India to which central government has given varying degrees of autonomy within state legislature:
[edit] Darjeeling Gorkha Autonomous Hill Council
The Darjeeling Gorkha Autonomous Hill Council (DGHC) was formed in 1988 after large-scale unrest among the Gorkhali people and the Gorkha National Liberation Front (GNLF) over the establishment of the separate state of Gorkhaland. Following an armistice, the DGHC was created and given authority over Darjeeling with limited autonomy.
[edit] Bodo Territorial Autonomous District
[edit] Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council
The Tripura Tribal Areas Autonomous District Council is an independent council administering the tribal areas of the state of Tripura. Its council and assembly are situated in Khumulwng, a town 20 km outside Agartala, the state capital.
