Tiwa Jatiya Aikya Manch (TJAM) is a regional political party in Assam, India. It aims to promote the Tiwa tribal people and promises equal development for both Tiwa and non-Tiwa communities in the Tiwa Council areas. The party has several wings, including the All Tiwa Students' Union, All Tiwa Women Association, Tiwa Yuba Chatra Parishad, Tiwa Cultural Society, and Tiwa Protection Committee. In December 2019, TJAM held a convention in Morigaon, where it backed protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act and called for the Tiwa Autonomous Council to be included in the Sixth Schedule to protect indigenous people in the Brahmaputra valley.
