Stop Genocide.

Stop pole vaulting and take your people back.

I read that now all the local tribes are coming together to wipe out the Bangladeshis from their lands. Can any local person give us some updates about the ground situation.
Government figures of 41 dead is joke.

The ex-cadres of various Bodo insurgent outfits are coming into play with weapons...this is what I last heard.

What a pity that our own bodo people are today helpless in our own country against these massive illegal bangladeshis who fled assam like cockroaches ...

Minority body seeks investigation into Assam ethnic strife

A Bodoland-based minority body today demanded a probe by central agencies into the root cause of the current violence in some districts of lower Assam.

"How did the violence unfold and who are the persons behind it? So far there has been no answer to this. We demand that the Assam government order a proper inquiry into this by some central agency, probably the CBI," Religious Minority Council of Bodoland Territorial Council general secretary Alauddin Ali told reporters here.

He said all communities, including the Bodos and the minorities, have been living in harmony in the region since ages.

"BTC was formed on the sacrifices made by Bodo people and the sympathy and support extended by non-Bodos," Ali said.

Blaming the state government for not taking immediate steps to curb the violence, he said, "Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi was slow in reacting to the initial incidents of violence and this led to escalation."

Ali also refuted the allegation made by certain quarters that some Bangladeshi elements were behind the violence.

He demanded an ex-gratia of Rs 5 lakh to the next of kin of the deceased and Rs 2 lakh for the injured.

"Besides, the state government and the BTC should take immediate steps to bring the displaced people back to their homes and provide compensation for the loss of property," Ali said.

As many as 41 people died so far in the clashes between minority immigrants and Bodos in lower Assam districts.

Indefinite curfew and shoot-at-sight orders are in force in worst-affected Kokrajhar district, while night curfew is on in Chirang and Dhubri district.

Over two lakh people are taking shelter in relief camps, while 11 are still missing.

This a bad situation as the violence can escalate and more people will perish. I believe India still needs to mature even though it has grown fairly good in the last decade.

What is North Bengali? People in North Bengal(Jalpaiguri, Darjeeling, Koch Bihar) speak the normal Bengali dialect.

Bengalis from West Bengal, mostly Hindus, who went to Assam during British era for administrative works, also speak in normal Bengali dialect.

Are the Bengalis there settlers from South western Bengal?

Saw the interview with Digvijay Singh in CNN IBN. He denies that there is any illegal immigration problem.

I would have stunned, had he accepted the involvement of illegal Bangladeshis.
