Suprakash Talukdar is an Indian politician and currently serves as the state secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) in Assam. He was first elected to the post on 17 February 2022 in 23rd Assam state conference of CPI(M) and got reelected to the post in the next conference as well. He is also a member of the Central Committee of the party since 22 April 2018.

Early life and student politics

Suprakash is the eldest son of Nandeswar Talukdar, a freedom fighter and prominent peasants' leader who served as secretary of the Assam state committee of the CPM from 1982 to 1995. Having born in a left-leaning family, he got acquainted with left-wing ideas from his childhood. He joined Students Federation of India, the student wing of CPIM while he was in Cotton Collegiate School in 1977. He studied geology from Cotton College which at that time was under Gauhati University. He was appointed the secretary of Assam state unit of SFI.

Views on socio-political issues

He has been quite vocal against Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2016 and Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 and wrote several articles against it and played an important role in uniting the left and democratic forces in the opposition of the bill.

He was also the member of Sitaram Yechury led delegation which visited the ethnic strife-torn Manipur for two days from 18 August 2023. The delegation also visited various relief camps at Churachandpur, Moirang and Imphal and met Governor Anusuiya Uikey and various other civil society organisations.
