Greater Cooch Behar People's Association

Greater Cooch Behar People's Association (GCPA) is a regional political and social organization active in the northern part of West Bengal, India. The organization advocates for the creation of a separate state, named Greater Cooch Behar, comprising the territory of the former princely state of Cooch Behar and surrounding areas in northern Bengal and western Assam. The GCPA is largely supported by the Rajbanshi people and other indigenous and backward communities of the region.
