Bodoland (/bədoʊˌlændˌˈboʊdəˌlænd/; Bodo: बर'लेन्द; Hindi: बोडोलैंड) is a geographical and political region of India consisting of areas located in the extreme north on the north bank of the Brahmaputra river in the state of Assam, in north east region of India, by the foothills of Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh. The region is predominantly inhabited by the indigenous Bodo people. Currently the map of Bodoland includes the Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD) administered by the Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) and other parts covering over twenty-five thousands square kilometres. The territory came into existence under the BTC Accord in February 2003. The map of Bodoland overlaps with the districts of Kokrajhar, Baksa, Chirang Udalguri. At present, Kokrajhar serves as the capital of Bodoland Territorial Area Districts.
