he Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council (KAAC) is a self-governing body in Assam, established under the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution to empower indigenous communities with political and administrative autonomy. Its primary goal is to enable local populations to have control over their governance and resources, ensuring that their unique needs are met.

KAAC holds legislative, executive, and judicial powers over several key sectors, including land management, agriculture, forests, public health, education, and local infrastructure. This autonomy allows the council to create policies and implement programs that cater to the specific needs and aspirations of the region, ensuring localized governance that reflects the interests of the indigenous communities.

One of the council's core missions is the preservation and promotion of the Karbi people's cultural heritage, language, and traditions. In addition to cultural preservation, KAAC focuses on socio-economic development, initiating projects aimed at improving education, healthcare, rural infrastructure, and livelihood opportunities. These efforts are designed to bridge development gaps and improve the quality of life for residents in the region.
