The Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) is set to witness an important political event today as the newly appointed Executive Members (EMs) of its 5th Executive Council will take the oath of office. The ceremony will be held at the BTCLA Auditorium in Bodofa Nwgwr, Kokrajhar.
Mukesh Chandra Sahu, Additional Chief Secretary to the Government of Assam, in charge of the Welfare of Bodoland Department and Women and Child Development Department, will administer the oath of office and secrecy to the Executive Members. The formal ceremony marks the official start of their duties in the new BTC government.
The new Executive Council, led by Chief Hagrama Mohilary, includes 12 members. The council has a mix of senior, experienced leaders and fresh faces who are expected to bring energy and new ideas to the administration. Notably, two women leaders, Moon Moon Brahma and Begam Akhtara Ahmed, are part of the council, highlighting efforts to improve gender representation in the region’s governance. 
District-wise representation in the council is as follows: Kokrajhar has five members, Chirang and Baksa have two members each, Udalguri has two members, and Tamulpur is represented by one member. This arrangement ensures that all parts of the Bodoland Territorial Region have representation in the council.
