Deori was one of the main architects of the “Khasi Darbar Hall Resolutions” created on 21–23 March 1945. In these resolutions, indigenous leaders of different ethnic identities resolved to restore their independent homelands against what they termed Indian occupation.

Deori helped found the General Secretary of Assam Tribal League in 1933. He stated that the government was not justified in stopping the remission of land revenue. He worked to ensure that indigenous Assamese people be allotted land pattas. He complained on behalf of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes to members into the general dining halls of universities on June 18, 1941, while criticizing improper mass literacy campaigns during the Assam Legislative Council budget session on 9 to 13 March 1943.
