This paper examines the formation and role of the Wesean Student Federation (WSF) within the broader context of the Northeast Indian region, often referred to as Wesea. The region, which includes parts of Northeast India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, is characterised by its diverse indigenous populations, unique cultural heritage, and a history of political marginalisation. The study explores how the WSF has emerged as a unifying force for Wesean students, seeking to bridge ethnic divides and foster cross-border solidarity among the indigenous communities of Wesea. By analysing the WSF's e orts to address issues such as the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the abolition of the Free Movement Regime (FMR), this paper sheds light on the federation's role in advocating for indigenous rights, cultural preservation, and political sovereignty in a region marked by complex historical and geopolitical dynamics.
