ITANAGAR, Jun 7:  Peoples Party of Arunachal (PPA) has  urged all political parties of the state to  raise their voice and demand on inclusion of Arunachal under Sixth Schedule and  Articles 371 (A) or (G) so that the Constitution recognizes indigenous ownership over resources of the state like the rest of Northeastern states.

Arunachal is under Article 371 (H) of the Constitution, which doesn't clearly state about the ownership of the resources of the state. Unlike Arunachal, most North Eastern states are under Articles 371 (A) or (G) and/or Sixth Schedule that recognizes and acknowledges the fact that the resources of those states are owned by the indigenous people and that they have absolute right over the resources, stated the release.
