SCHEDULED TRIBE DEMAND COMMITTEE OF MANIPUR

SCHEDULED TRIBE DEMAND COMMITTEE OF MANIPUR:

The Scheduled Tribe Demand Committee of Manipur (STDCM) is a body formed by the Meitei people, one of the indigenous communities of Manipur. It is a non-political and non-religious people’s organization. It is an independent organization of the Meitei society, spearheaded by retired bureaucrats and ex-army officers.

The STDCM, on behalf of the indigenous Meitei community of Manipur, has been striving to secure Constitutional safeguards by getting the indigenous Meitei included in the ST list under Article 342(1) of the Constitution of India since the last part of 2012.
