History

Jengraimukh, one of the epicenters of tribal India, consisted mainly of Mising and Deori Tribes, was an area totally backward explicitly in economic and education fronts. On account of the gaps of transportation and communications due to the barricade of its natural boundaries, people of this vast locality could not send their children for Higher Education. Lack of education degenerates the sense of economic, Social and Political awareness, i.e total fall from a nobler state. Keeping this view in mind, to create a general awareness for higher education, a brainstorming idea came in to the mind of a few leading fellows. To translate this grand hypothesis into actually, some leading personalities of locality came to the fore and extend their assistance. Arrangements were made for other infrastructures thus, the beacon light for Tribal people in the auspicious name of Jengraimukh College appeared into reality in the year 1973.

Anti-Bengali sentiment in India comprises negative attitudes and views on Bengalis in India. Though Bengalis have lived in different parts of India for centuries, they are subject to widespread discrimination, specially by the people from the North and North-east India. This can be either by any other community or in any particular place, due to reasons like inhabitation, discriminating sentiments, political reasons, Government actions, anti-Bangladeshi sentiment etc. The discriminative condition of Bengalis can be traced from Khoirabari massacre, Nellie massacre, Silapathar massacre, North Kamrup massacre, Goreswar massacre, Bongal Kheda etc. This has led to emergence of Bengali sub-nationalism in India as a form of protest and formation of many pro-Bengali organisations in India.
