The Tritiya Prastuti Committee(TPC) was formed in 2002 when several cadres broke away from Maoist Communist Centre (MCC) due to its perceived domination of Yadav caste in decision making and discrimination of so-called Dalits led to the formation of the TPC by non-Yadavs chiefly the Mahtos, Ganjhus, Bhokta, Oraon and Kharwars among others.
