The pro-talks faction of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) sounded an alert and beefed up security at its camps in the upper Assam region following reports through its “own channels” that the outfit was attempting to carry out strikes in the area, including on its members, reports Telegraph. The pro-talks faction also cautioned the State Government about ULFA’s plan to carry out the attacks in August 2009. Prabal Neog, a leader of the pro-talks faction, told Telegraph, “Many cadres (of ULFA) have already entered Tinsukia District from the Myanmar camps via Arunachal Pradesh and have started distributing extortion notices. We have information about ULFA trying desperately to carry out strikes. If not on Security Forces, it may be Hindi-speaking settlements and us. We have tightened security in our camps.” Jiten Dutta, another pro-talks leader, said most of the ULFA militants who had entered Tinsukia recently were recruited by him just a few months before they declared a cease-fire in June 2008. “They are fully trained now and have been sent by the leadership to carry out strikes,” he added.

According to Telegraph, a self styled “sergeant” of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA), identified as Deepshikha Baruah alias Bohagi Baruah (35), a resident of Himpora village under Moranhat Police Station in Sivasagar District, was arrested by the Security Forces (SFs) on July 6 from Rongapathar village under Sonari Police Station.

National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) claimed to have received INR five million from the Bodo Territorial Council (BTC) chief Hagrama Mohilary ahead of the 2006 Legislative Assembly elections to help the Bodo Peoples Front (BPF). The claim comes within days of the Opposition demanding Mohilary’s arrest for — by his own admission earlier — having paid the NDFB. Mohilary, however, had immediately refuted the opposition’s charge saying he had been misquoted. This is the first time that the NDFB has made any comment on the controversial episode, which was started by Mohilary himself soon after the last parliamentary elections. In a press statement issued today by the outfit’s ‘assistant information’ and ‘publicity secretary’ R. Daokha, the NDFB claimed receiving INR five million in cash to work in favour of the BPF in the 2006 Assembly elections. The amount was received by M. Gerema, the ‘organising secretary’, and ‘B. Bengga’, the speaker of the NDFB,” the statement ‘added.

Central intelligence agencies have cautioned about a “rejuvenated” ULFA carrying out a massive fund collection drive from the business establishments located along Assam’s boundary with Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh, reports Telegraph. According to an intelligence report from upper Assam, several businessmen paying extortion money to the ULFA were doins so in installments. Sources in the agency said the sum in the demand notes served to the traders varied between INR 200000 and INR 2000000. A senior officer of Golaghat Police confirmed that the ULFA had been trying to extort businessmen in the border areas. Such notices have been served in the Merapani and Chungajan areas along the Assam-Nagaland border, he said. “We have not received any official complaint till now though we have information about a few businessmen receiving such extortion notes. A few have allegedly paid to the ULFA coffers also.” Most of these businessmen, the officer said, are Hindi-speaking persons. Meanwhile, a statement issued by ULFA’s ‘finance secretary’, ‘lieutenant colonel’ Chitraban Hazarika, on July 8 said “donation notes” purportedly signed by him and distributed among the businessmen, especially in Nagaon district, were fake. “Such notices are fake as I have not signed any donation note since 2002,” the statement added.

Security Forces (SFs) suspect the involvement of a National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) militant, identified as Gandhi, behind the July 13 bomb blast near Bhalukpong in Sonitpur District that claimed the lives of an Army colonel and his driver, reports Telegraph. A senior Police official said Gandhi was out to trigger blasts targeting Police Stations and SF personnel in Guwahati as well as in Sonitpur and Dhemaji Districts, following instructions of NDFB ‘chief’ Ranjan Daimary. "He almost succeeded in carrying out a blast at Gogamukh Police Station in Dhemaji District by planting a bomb in a taxi a week ago. But fortunately, the bomb-laden taxi was detected," the official said. "Gandhi has become the right hand man of Daimary after Laden, another dreaded cadre, died in an encounter with the Police in the Birubari area of Guwahati about a month back," the official said. "Gandhi fled from Dhemaji about a fortnight back, handing over the responsibility to Krishna, another NDFB cadre, to carry out blasts in Dhemaji," he said, adding that the Police had laid a trap to arrest Krishna but the latter had managed to escape. The official said as per information, Daimary had issued instructions to Gandhi to carry out the blasts to avenge the recent killings of the NDFB militants in several parts of the State. According to official figures placed in the Legislative Assembly on July 13, 43 NDFB militants have been killed in encounters with the SFs between March 1 and June 30, 2009.

the one-man inquiry commission headed by Justice (retired) R. K.

"There was an agreement between leaders of Black Widow (BW) and leaders of the Autonomous State Demand Committee (ASDC) - Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Executive Committee that the alliance would pay INR 20 million to the BW leaders if the alliance came to power (in December 2007 North Cachar Hills Autonomous Council election)," the report added. The commission was formed by Assam Government on June 20 2008, to probe into ‘collusion’ of the BW with members of the ASDC-BJP in capturing power in the North Cachar Hills Autonomous Council (NCHAC) and also ‘misappropriation’ of NCHAC development fund.

Quoting an official source in the Home Department of Assam, Telegraph said an alert was announced about the plans of a 300-member group of youths to sneak into the State for carrying out subversive activities after being trained by Maoist rebels in Jharkhand over the past three years. An official in the Home Department said these youths, most of them members of an organisation ostensibly espousing the cause of farmers and also believed to be a frontal organisation of ULFA, had left Assam during 2006-2007. “Most of these youths are from areas where the organisation was active till a few months back. Now it is trying to form District-level committees throughout the state. Most of these youths are from Golaghat and Nagaon Districts. We have names of some of them who had disappeared since 2006. Some of these youths may have even been taking shelter in the Lalgarh area of West Bengal, which was till a few days back a stronghold of Maoist rebels,” the official said. He said there were reports of the ULFA striking a deal with the Maoists and that these trained youths had been assigned to carry out subversive activities in the State. “Ulfa has been trying since long to work together with the Maoist rebels operating in India, who have links with China,” the official added. Sources said the organisation had strong bases in the Doyang and Tengani areas of Golaghat District and Kaki in Nagaon District. “We also have information that arms for these youths may have already arrived in the state. We are keeping a close watch on these areas,” he added further.

Sentinel reports that south India has become the new destination for militant outfits from the Northeast with intelligence inputs indicating that militant leaders from the region were taking shelter in cities down south, especially Bangalore, capital of Karnataka, following intense pressure from the SFs. Leaders of militant outfits from Assam, like the ULFA and the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB), have made some south Indian cities their new bases. “We have definite reports of some senior and middle level leaders of the ULFA and the NDFB escaping from Assam and taking shelter in South India. We cannot divulge any more details about the cities and other information for Security reasons,” the Director General of Police (DGP) G. M. Srivastava said. “We are in touch with our counterparts in South India to zero in on the militant leaders based in those cities,” he added. Bangalore is one such city linked to militant outfits from the Northeast. In June 2009, two senior leaders of the Black Widow (BW), a militant outfit from Assam, including its ‘commander-in-chief’ Jewel Garlosa, were arrested from that city. Earlier in July 2009, Police arrested Roshan Ali alias Anees Mohammad, leader of the Manipur-based People’s United Liberation Front (PULF), at Singanapalya near Mahadevpura in Bangalore. Ali reportedly moved to Bangalore in 2008 and worked as a security guard for a Multi-National Company.

Assam Government has ruled out renaming the North Cachar Hills District - one of the key demands raised by the Black Widow (BW) outfit. The BW wants the District to be renamed as Dima Hasao. The Urban Development Minister D. P. Goala told Telegraph that a committee, headed by him and constituted to examine the issue, in its report submitted recently has pointed out the difficulties in renaming the District because non-Dimasas constitute the majority in the District. "We have examined every aspect of the proposal to rename the District. We have pointed out the difficulties in renaming the district as the Dimasas constitute only 43 per cent of the total population," Goala said. The other members of the committee include ministers Himanta Biswa Sarma and Rockybul Hussain. Home Commissioner R.K. Bora was the convenor of the committee, he added. Sources in the Chief Minister’s office said renaming the District according to the BW’s wishes would only escalate ethnic tension between the Dimasas and non-Dimasas in the District. The non-Dimasas are opposed to the name proposed by the BW.

Union Government ruled out any possibilities of a separate Bodo state, reports Telegraph. The Union Government made its stand clear that it hardly had anything more to concede after granting the status of autonomous council under the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution to the Bodos. The Union Home Secretary G.K. Pillai said there was no question of carving out another State from Assam. “Statehood is ruled out,” he said. Pillai said barring some financial powers to the council “here and there” there was not much left to concede. Pillai added that the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) did not oblige when it was asked to join in while the Government was in talks with the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT). “The request was conveyed to Ranjan Daimary. We had told them they would lose an opportunity if they did not join in, but they did not listen,” he said, further adding if the NDFB thought it would get something more it was wrong. Meanwhile, the NDFB spokesman S. Sanjarang told Telegraph that his organisation was not asking for anything outside the ambit of the Indian Constitution. “We want a separate state with maximum autonomy and special powers which is well within the framework of the Constitution,” he said.
