    Digital Desk: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma stated that the state government would form a new department dedicated to developing faith and culture among anthropologically indigenous and tribal tribes, highlighting the significance of their ancient wisdom.

    CM Sarma announced while meeting with leaders from the state's 30 tribal communities in Guwahati.

    "Assam is a microcosm of a bigger region where for decades, people of many indigenous and tribal faiths and cultures have lived." But, on the other hand, the younger generations appear to have lost connection with the ancient religion and ceremonies for a variety of reasons," Sarma stated.

    He also discussed several techniques for preserving and developing anthropologically indigenous and tribal populations' beliefs and cultures.

    "People of indigenous faith and culture make our demographic dynamic and unique," commented Sarma on Twitter. At the Assam Legislative Assembly, I had the pleasure of meeting representatives from 30 tribal clans and discussing several ways to preserve and promote their unique faith and culture."

    "With institutional support, our government will maintain and promote their faith and culture so that even the next generation can learn about and absorb their unique culture and traditions." He went on to say, –

    According to Sarma, the department would develop an action plan for the state government to enrich the state's demographics and a broad array of indigenous and tribal traditions.

    "To achieve its goal of supporting the next generation in learning the virtues of ancient faith and culture, the department would fundamentally do thorough research and lay a solid foundation." Sarma opined.

    He urged these leaders to register their organizations with the department so that the state government may support those working to preserve and develop indigenous and tribal beliefs and cultures.
