Khandu to meet PM soon on Article 371(H)

Itanagar, Dec 1 (UNI) Chief Minister Pema Khandu on Tuesday said that he will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi soon regarding the Article 371 (H) of the Constitution to protect the tribal rights of the indigenous people of Arunachal Pradesh.
Speaking at the Indigenous Faith Day celebration here, Khandu, while referring to the Article 371(H) of the Constitution, said that feedbacks from the community based organisations (CBOs) have been received and he will be calling on the PM soon to discuss on it.
Khandu observed that as people were not educated and well aware of their tribal rights vis-a-vis constitutional provisions when Arunachal Pradesh was conferred statehood in 1987, constitutional protection of tribal rights in the state missed the bus.
