CM hints at reconsideration of ceasefire with NDFB

Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogai says the government could reconsider the ceasefire with NDFB if the allegations of masterminding the communal flare up in lower Assam’s Darrang and Udalguri districts and lower Assam.Addressing the media people on Sunday, Gogoi claimed that the situation is under control and has improved a lot. "We have reports that a section of NDFB cadres could be behind the ongoing violence and have directed the authorities to inquire into their possible involvement and if it is proved true, we will go to the extent of getting the ceasefire agreement cancelled," said Gogoi.He said NDFB cadres should be in their designated camps as per the ceasefire agreement and their alleged involvement in the violence was a matter of serious concern.

He further said Army and para-military forces have been deployed in the violence-affected districts and authorities have been directed "to take all possible measures to protect lives and properties of people.

TUTU's picture

If Bangladeshi can host Pakistanis flag and Tarun Gogoi and his party backs Bangladeshi as minorities and so called minorities can kill Boro or Ahom why can, the Bodo, Ahom or Mongolian groups can't host Chinese flag as they are our blood related brother and sisters. Fact is that Bangladeshi and Indian look alike. Assam will be better placed without Tarun Gogoi, Paresh Baurah, P Mahanta and all those who sell their own mother to be a minister or kills for money.

I agree with Tutu. If no strict action is taken then our home country will be full of jehadis. It was on the news that the Islamic groups wants to make Assam a Islamic state, therefore I request the defence department should take strict action.
