Every single one of those terrorists must be brought to justice. A successful nation state has a long institutional memory and the muscle to act upon it.

Media forgot to say Christian Militants. It is very important to maintain the secular fabric of our country to identify all militants by their religions and not just when Hindu miscreants are involved.

ABSU urges Bodo militants to come overboard | Zee News
Last Updated: Tuesday, May 26, 2015 - 21:01

Tezpur: All Bodo Studens Union president Pramod Bodo on Tuesday gave a call to all those in the jungles, particularly the NDFB (Songbijit) cadres hiding there to come out to the mainstream for establishment of permanent peace in Bodoland.


Addressing a series of public meetings here at Batachipur, Hograjuli-Khawla Centre and Belsiri areas in Sonitpur district near the Assam-Arunachal border, Bodo asked the underground outfits in the jungles to come overboard.

"A section of misled Bodo youths are still in the jungle in the name of revolution. They should not waste valuable time of their life", he said.

The influential ABSU leader also urged the Bodo civil society to get involved in building an illegal-arms-culture free society.

Speaking on the negative impact of arms culture, he said it destroys the social fabric and also urged the people to create an alcohol free society and an educational environment among the students.

"We cannot allow anybody to spread the poison of intolerance in society," Bodo said.

ABSU has been carrying out a mass mobilisation programme among the Bodo people to create an opinion on bringing about a total change in the Bodo society.

Moreover, touching upon the land patta problem of the people of the greater area he slammed the congress ruled Assam government for depriving these people from their legitimate rights.

10 NDFB cadres killed, over 300 nabbed in five months: DGP | Zee News
Last Updated: Tuesday, May 26, 2015 - 21:40


Guwahati: During the five-month security operation against the anti-talks faction of the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) militants, 10 members of the outfit have been killed and over 300 cadres and linkmen arrested, an official said.


Assam Director General of Police Khagen Sarma, revealing this on Tuesday, said the continued operation against the outfit also resulted in substantial improvement of the law and order situation in the hill state.

"We have also recovered over 100 sophisticated arms, including factory-made weapons, and 62.5 kg of explosives during our operations all these months in different locations of the state," Sarma said.

Assam Police in association with the central paramilitary forces and the army launched the operation against the NDFB faction, which is opposed to any peace talks, after the outfit massacred over 70 civilians, including women and children, in three districts of Assam on December 23 last year.

Giving the report card on five months of the operation, the DGP told the media that the operations were continuing and 343 cadres have been arrested so far. Of these, 204 were active cadres and the rest were over ground workers and sympathisers.

After the December 23 massacre, the central government ruled out any talks with the NDFB faction and sent additional companies of security forces to assist Assam police in its operation against the militants.

"We have received about 50 companies of paramilitary forces and they are still stationed here to assist the state police in counter-insurgency operations," Sarma said.

The state police chief, however, said that the outfit was still trying to set up its camps in Manas Reserve Forest in Bodoland Territorial Areas Districts and about 35 to 40 of its members were still moving around in the state.

He said the top brass of the outfit, including its leader I.K. Songbijit, has already shifted base to foreign soil like in Myanmar.
