- A federation of 25 Himas or Khasi kingdoms plan to revisit the 1948 agreements that made present-day Meghalaya a part of India.
- The 25 states were ruled by a Syiem (king-like head of a Hima).
- They aim to safeguard tribal customs and traditions from Central laws in force or the proposed Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.
- All 25 Khasi states had signed the Instrument of Accession and Annexed Agreement with the Dominion of India between December 15, 1947, and March 19, 1948.
- But they have not signed the “Instrument of Merger” as done by all former Indian states.
