Bru or Reang tribe is living in the states of Tripura, Assam and Mizoram.
In Tripura, this community is recognised as a Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group.
In Mizoram, it is targeted by ethnic organisations demanding its exclusion from electoral rolls.
In a bid to ensure their permanent settlement in Tripura, an agreement was signed between the Centre and the two states (Mizoram and Tripura) this year.
According to the agreement, 32000 people residing in the camps are to permanently settle in the state of Tripura.
This agreement has led to the protests from Mizo groups and the Bengalis in the state of Tripura.
