Kuki Zo Council

The Kuki-Zo Council is a joint body of Kuki-Zo tribal leaders in Manipur, India. It came into being in October 2024 after 18 months of 2023–2025 Manipur violence, in which the Kuki-Zo community felt targeted by the Manipur state government. During the previous months, the community was represented by Indigenous Tribal Leaders' Forum (ITLF) in the Churachandpur district and the Committee on Tribal Unity (CoTU) in the Kangpokpi district. After the formation of the Kuki-Zo Council, ITLF and CoTU came to be regarded as local organisations.
