The Times of India reports that with a week to go for the final phase of Lok Sabha (Lower House of Indian Parliament) election in Assam, the administration is concerned over the use of illegal weapons in the State's Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD), which is known to be the hotbed of Bodo militants. Election is scheduled to be held in BTAD that falls under Kokrajhar (ST) LS seat on April 24. A number of Bodo insurgent groups and the anti-talks faction of the I K Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Boroland (NDFB-IKS) faction are active in the region. IGP (BTAD) L R Bishnoi said, "More than 90% licenced arms in BTAD have been collected following the Election Commission's safety norms. The rest will be collected in a day or two." However, the use of illegal weapons by Bodo militants and some activists of political parties are worrying the administration. "In Baksa district, at least 29 illegal arms have been seized so far, besides several grenades and explosives. We have intensified our operation against NDFB (S) and police have succeeded in eliminating at least five ultras. Incidents of violence among political parties are also worrying us," Bishnoi said. In Chirang, Police have so far seized two AK-56 guns, two pistols and two grenades, he added. At least six cases of violence between supporters of Bodoland Peoples' Front (BPF) and Bodoland Peoples' Progressive Front (BPPF) have been reported in the last few days. ishnoi said, "Besides the existing force, eight additional companies of security forces have already been deployed in BTAD. Of them, four are in Baksa, two in Udalguri and one each in Chirang and Kokrajhar." The Telegraph reports that Independent candidate Urkhao Gwra Brahma Brahma on April 16 filed a complaint with the chief electoral officer and returning officer of Kokrajhar (ST) parliamentary constituency against the BPF and its president Hagrama Mohilary accusing him of indulging in large scale violence and intimidation by using sophisticated arms. In his complaint letter, Brahma, the consensus Independent candidate of the All Bodo Students’ Union and its allies, said the situation in Baksa District was volatile and not conducive to free and fair elections if the situation spun out of control. Sporadic incidents of pre-poll violence were reported from several parts of Baksa under Kokrajhar constituency, forcing the District administration to order a flag march in the evening of April 16 at Mushalpur.

the Pro-talks faction of United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA-PTF), on April 17, disowned one of its leaders, Naba Kumar Sarania (Hira) who has contested the current parliamentary election from Kokrajhar constituency in Assam as an Independent candidate The Shillong Times. Serving a blow to Sarania, the ULFA faction in a statement e-mailed to the media appealed to the voters in Kokrajhar constituency not to vote for him as he had ‘made mockery’ of extreme sacrifices made by hundreds of martyrs of ULFA who laid down their lives for the ‘national struggle’, by participating in election to India Parliament against the principles and ideology of the ULFA. The ULFA faction also made it clear that it had in no way extended any tactical support to the electoral battle of Naba Kumar Sarania who has already been expelled from the ULFA because of his individual decision to stand in parliamentary election of India. Naba Kumar Sarania alias Hira Sarania (as he was known as a ULFA leader) is in the fray in the ethnically sensitive Kokrajhar Lok Sabha constituency in western Assam. He has several criminal cases pending against him as per the declaration by him in the affidavit attached with his nomination papers submitted to the Election Commission.

Expressing concern over the spurt in violence in (BTAD) areas ahead of the third and final phase of Lok Shaba polls, the Bodo Sahitya Sabha (BSS), on April 18, alleged that the Congress Government could be behind it to create confusion among voters, reports The Assam Tribune. “This is an attempt to influence the democratic process of the country and the authorities must act swiftly to restore faith of the voters in BTAD, which is going for polls on April 24,” said Bodo Sahitya Sabha general secretary, Kamalakanta Mooshahary.

Ahead of polling in areas along the borders of Pakistan and Bangladesh, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs alerted Security Forces to step up vigil due to fears that Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) and drugs could be smuggled into India and supplied to voters, Daily Mail reports on April 20. Over 170 Lok Sabha constituencies in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir, West Bengal, Assam and Gujarat - the states which share their borders with either Pakistan, Nepal or Bangladesh - will go to the polls in the last four phases of the general election beginning on April 24. The Home Ministry has issued a directive asking security forces to keep strict vigilance along the borders to ensure peace and to check anti-social activities ahead of the polling. "An order has been issued to check trans-border crimes and smuggling of narcotics and fake Indian currency notes through effective domination of the border by carrying out round-the-clock surveillance," said an official from the Home Ministry.

The Sanmilita Janagostiya Aikkyamancha (SJA), a conglomeration of at least 20 ethnic and linguistic groups based in Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD) has alleged that the pro-talks faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-PTF) group has asked all its members not to vote for independent candidate Hira Sarania in Kokrajhar constituency, reports The Times of India. A leader of the pro-talks group, Sarania entered the fray even though his organization is in peace talks with the Centre. Sarania continued to campaign in the four Districts of Chirang, Kokrajhar, Udalguri and Baksa in the BTAD and is being backed by the SJA. While criticizing Rajkhowa for the diktat, the group said the ULFA-PTF has no right to impose its views on others. "They (Rajkhowa and others) never raised their voice when non-Bodos and other ethnic groups suffered during violence in the BTAD region. Now their decree only hints that the outfit's leaders are in nexus with the Bodoland Peoples' Front (BPF) led by Hagrama Mohilary. Sarania was fielded by the people and we believe he is going to win by a huge margin," said SJA general secretary Matiur Rahman. The group also alleged that BPF workers were involved in attacking a vehicle of one of its worker in Baksa in the night of April 17. Unidentified miscreants allegedly shot at a vehicle of an SJA worker and vandalized a poll office of Sarania at Musalpur in Baksa.
