Guwahati, Apr 21 (IBNS): Politics in the trouble torn hills district of Karbi Anglong in Assam on Friday drastically changed as over hundred youths of 24 tribal organizations staged nude protest ahead of the polls of Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council (KAAC).


The members of 24 tribal organizations staged nude protest at Diphu town in the hills district and demanded to change electoral rolls ahead of the council poll.

The protesters staged nude protest to draw attention of the government.

The protesters demanded that, only tribal voters should be allowed to exercise in the council.

They said that, if allowing non-tribals to vote in the council poll then it will affect their interest.

Later, police dispersed the protesters by detaining them.
