Thengal-Kachari → Thengal people – Thengal people is standard form e.g. Dimasa people for Dimasa-kachari KPAhmed (talk) 18:00, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: A number of groups in Assam are customarily named in the form "Type-Kachari". They are Sarania Kachari, Thengal-Kachari, Sonowal Kachari etc. Though others, such as Boro-Kachari and Dimasa-Kachari etc. are now referred to as Boro and Dimasa, these groups are still referred to in this way. Here is the official use of the name [1]. This move is opposed per WP:NEO. Nevertheless, Thengal-Kachari → Thengal Kachari people will be appropriate.

Customarily named, by whom, when and why. KPAhmed (talk) 12:11, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a Government of Assam website that mentions the "Thengal Kachari Autonomous Council" [2]. Chaipau (talk) 21:26, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Assamese government will recognise Kachari Muslim also. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/assam-govt-for-economic-survey-of-kachari-muslims/article30926943.ece/amp/ KPAhmed (talk) 05:43, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
