Post Bureau, Guwahati
(July 24): Bodoland Territorial Council chief Hagrama Mohilary has
demanded immediate sealing of the Indo-Bangladesh border, alleging that
Bangladeshi nationals were sneaking into the state and fomenting trouble.
He said that there are reports from indigenous
Muslim people that some foreign elements are instigating the local people to
indulge in violence in Kokrajhar district.
“The people in BTC, particularly the Muslims,
are industrious people who have been living in peace with us since many years.
There was no disharmony before. But local Muslims have informed that people
from outside, particularly the neighbouring country, have entered the area and
are instigating the local people,” Mohilary alleged.
