All Bodo Students Union (ABSU)

All Bodo Students' Union (ABSU) (Bodo: दुलाराय बर फरायसा आफाद) is a students organization (non-political) formed on February 15, 1967 in the Bodoland region of Assam, India. The ABSU under the leadership of Upendranath Brahma supported the movement for a separate state within Assam, to be called Bodoland for all tribal communities living on the North Bank of River Brahmaputra in Assam. The demand for Bodoland is the result of years of exploitation by the ruling Assamese communities in the post colonial Assam.
