Tai Ahom, Koch Rajbanshi, Moran, Mutocks along with two others are likely to get ST status.
The good news for the six communities has come from the Centre when the six ethnic communityleaders hunkered down with Union tribal affairs minister Juel Ornam in New Delhi on Thursday.
Flanked by sports minister Sarbabanda Sonowal, Ornam said the Centre will have to change the modalities in the soon to be held cabinet meeting.
After the seal of approval from the cabinet, the modalities would be ready. It would take two or three months to complete the entire proceedings.
Later the delegation talked to union home minister Rajnath Singh at his official residence.
The move assumed significance despite the escalating protest of the existing ST people.

But the state has been lagging behind.“Had there been an able leadership, the face of Assam would have chaged long ago,” said Modi.He said, “Vajpayee government gave the state a huge Rs 40,000 crore package. We would give more if we are voted to power.”
“Give more only 60 months.

He further said that he would bring the black money stashed outside back to the country.
His name is Tarun. But what he does is quite different. This was what Narendra Modi said in his scathing attack on Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi in Guwahati on Saturday.In his address at the huge rally at the Veterinary College Playground on Saturday, the Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP’s prime ministerial candidate said that the chief minister’s name and performance do not match.He said that the Congress-led UPA government is at the Centre and the Congress government have been failing to deliver the goods which is why, Assam is the poorest among the north eastern state. He said that Prime Minister must answer.
The government has no dearth of schemes. But these have not percolate benefits for the poor people, said Narendra Modi.Addressing a huge rally at the Veterinary College Playground on Saturday, the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate said that if MNREGA is there why lakhs of unemployed people are there in the state? He said that these schemes are really not meant for the general people.
BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said that the resources full Assam have lakhs of poor people.In his address at the huge rally at the Veterinary College Playground on Saturday, the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate said that the Centre has not done enough to develop Assam and other north eastern state.“You have sent the country’s prime minister from your state.

BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Saturday called Congressmen narrow minded.In his address at the huge rally at the Veterinary College Playground, the Gujarat Chief Minister said that hundreds of doyens have gave brave fight in the Independence struggle. But the Congress party concentrated only on the Nehru-Gandhi family.He said Sardar Ballav Bhai Patel is never remembered by the Congress. Gopinath Bordoloi is known for his sacrifice. But only the Vajpayee Government gave him the Bharat Ratna award.
BJP state president Sarbananda Sonowal said that his party is the only option left for the people to get rid of the UPA-misgovernance that crippled the entire country.In his welcome address at the huge rally before being addressed by prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, Sonowal said that BJP will chance the face of Assam and north east if voted to power.
