Tiwa is an ethnic group mainly inhabiting the states of Assam and Meghalaya in northeastern India. They are also found in some areas of Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur and Nagaland. They are recognized as a Scheduled tribe within the State of Assam. They were known as Lalungs in the Assamese Buranjis and in Colonial literature and in the Constitution of India, though members of the group prefer to call themselves Tiwa (meaning "the people who were lifted from below"). Some of their neighbours still call them Lalung.

  • Els tiwa o lalung són un poble del nord-est de l'Índia a Assam. Disposen d'un Consell Autònom però als darrers anys ha estat acusat de corrupció, d'augmentar els càrrecs retribuïts, i portar el nombre de membres de l'assemblea legislativa de 30 a 41 innecessàriament. El principal representant del poble és el Sadou Assam Tiwa Sanmilan (Associació Tiwa d'Assam, All-Assam Tiwa Association). El Front Nacional Revolucionari Tiwa és una organització que busca la independència a través de la lluita armada. (ca)
  • Los lalung son un pueblo que vive en Asam y Megalaya, en la India. Hablan boro, una lengua de la familia tibetano-birmana. Se cree que emigraron desde el Tíbet y son hindúes. Hay dos subdivisiones —los lalung de las montañas y los de las llanuras— que difieren ampliamente entre sí por su alimentación, vivienda, agricultura y otras prácticas. Los lalung de las montañas practican el cultivo de roza y quema, mientras que los de las llanuras cultivan arroz con arado y de forma sedentaria. El arroz es el componente principal de su dieta. * Datos: Q5969646 * Multimedia: Tiwa people / Q5969646 (es)
