11 die in clashes between ethnic Bodos and Muslim settlers

[BRICS]

Absolutely, and the Bodos should act fast before the illegal immigrants manage to change the demographics of the region.

They have already changed the demographics. Damage has already been done and is continuing with no end in sight.

Now who's paying for that? Those illegal Bangladeshis can't even seek police help. I pity their condition.

Bodos are the most feared tribe in Assam,they are known for their short temper and tit for tat mentality....but they are the most disciplined tribe in Assam

I wonder how much BSF charge some of these illegal bangladeshis to come into India?

Same query here, given the Bangladeshi casualty we have at the borders, i assume the number would be pretty high for an average Bangladeshi.

80 Homes Burned as Groups Clash in Northeast India

GAUHATI, India July 24, 2012 (AP)

Government troops sent to quell communal clashes over land rights in a northeastern Indian state were under orders Tuesday to shoot suspected rioters on sight after 22 people were killed in machete attacks and dozens of homes were burned to the ground.

Some 50,000 villagers have fled to government camps for protection since violence erupted Friday between the ethnic Bodo community and Muslim settlers in Assam's western district of Kokrajhar, said the state's police chief, J.N. Choudhury.

Road and rail links connecting the narrow neck of the northeast to the main body of India were cut off, Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi said. However, he did not expect food shortages.

During the violence, police found 22 bodies, most of them hacked with machetes and left in the jungle or by the road or riverside. Overnight, some 80 homes were burned down as the violence spread to neighboring Dhubri and Chirang districts. No one was injured in the fires as the homes' occupants had already fled to the half-dozen or so camps set up by officials.
