Article 244(A) allows for creation of an ‘autonomous state’ within Assam in certain tribal areas.

It also envisages creation of a local legislature or Council of Ministers or both to carry out local administration.

It was Inserted into the Constitution by the Twenty-second Constitution Amendment Act, 1969.

Article 244(A) accounts for more autonomous powers to tribal areas than the Sixth Schedule. Among these the most important power is the control over law and order.

In Autonomous Councils under the Sixth Schedule, they do not have jurisdiction of law and order.

The Sixth Schedule of the Constitution provides for the administration of tribal areas in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram to safeguard the rights of the tribal population in these states.


This special provision is provided under Article 244 (2) and Article 275 (1) of the Constitution.


In Assam, the hill districts of Dima Hasao, Karbi Anglong and West Karbi and the Bodo Territorial Region are under this provision.


The Governor is empowered to increase or decrease the areas or change the names of the autonomous districts.



While executive powers of the Union extend in Scheduled areas with respect to their administration in fifth schedule, the sixth schedule areas remain within executive authority of the state.
The Fifth Schedule of the Constitution deals with the administration and control of scheduled areas and scheduled tribes in any state except the four states of Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram.

The acts of Parliament or the state legislature do not apply to autonomous districts and autonomous regions or apply with specified modifications and exceptions.
