Institutional Adaptations and Local Empowerment: An Evaluation of Article 371(H)’s Role in Governance Mechanisms of Arunachal Pradesh

Author(s) Ms. Sonam Choten, Dr. Ms. Nilanjana Saha
Country India
Abstract Arunachal Pradesh is granted specific governance procedures under Article 371(H) of the Indian Constitution, which are intended to address the region's particular socio-cultural, geopolitical, and administrative concerns. Due to its unique position in the Indian federal structure, Article 371(H) grants discretionary powers to the governor, particularly in matters related to land and law and order.
The purpose of the Article was to protect the tribal legacy of Arunachal Pradesh, guarantee its inclusion in the Indian Union, and promote sustainable development in the face of intricate local dynamics. The paper assesses how Article 371(H) has shaped Arunachal Pradesh's governance structures, with a particular emphasis on how it has affected institutional adjustments and local empowerment. It looks at how policymaking and the implementation of development projects have been impacted by the governor's discretionary powers. The research also looks at how much Article 371(H) has made it possible to maintain traditional customs, tribal identities, and community-based government structures. Even though the clause has proven very helpful in resolving regional issues, problems including low local involvement, ineffective administration, and unclear roles for the governor still exist. This essay makes the case that strengthening local communities and promoting participatory government could be achieved by re-examining the structure of Article 371(H). The provision can be used as a model to solve the intricacies of governance in other tribal communities by encouraging a closer alignment between traditional customs and contemporary governance.
