Suspected National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) terrorists killed three members of a family, including a 10-year-old boy at Bongshijhora village, under Bogribari police station limits in Dhubri district, on June 2. A report said, the incident occurred following an attack by a group of approximately six NDFB terrorists, who first called one of victims out of their home, who ignored their calls. Thereafter, the terrorists forced their way into the house and fired indiscriminately on the victims, killing three on the spot. This is suspected to be a revenge attack as one of them was alleged to be a Bodo Liberation Tiger (BLT) link-man by the NDFB terrorists, further said the report. The report quoting police sources also said the NDFB terrorists suspected him of having passed on information about the movement of the outfit that had led to the killing of nine NDFB terrorists in an encounter on May 27 in the same village.

Chief Controller, Village Defence Force (VDF) and Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) (Administration) Umesh Kumar, according to media reports of June 3, said Assam Police would mobilise VDF personnel to maintain a tight vigil at vital oil installations and pipelines that pass through rural areas. The VDF would also be engaged to keep night vigil along railway tracks to foil possible sabotage by terrorists. Umesh Kumar said the 11,000 registered groups of the VDF in the State were capable enough to work in tandem with the police and other security force agencies to maintain law-and-order. Stating that the VDF was almost a voluntary force in Assam, as the personnel did not receive any remuneration, except items like torch, blanket, lantern, umbrella and other utensils, the Chief Controller said Assam Police was likely to place a proposal before the Union Home Ministry to reimburse the expenditure incurred on deployment of the VDF, following which, VDF personnel would receive a fixed monthly amount for their services. In Nagaland, each month a VDF personnel is reportedly being paid Rs 500.

The State government’s offer of amnesty to the terrorist groups was still valid the CM said. He had met the Prime Minister and Home Minister in New Delhi on June 13. He also pointed that the efforts of the State to bring the terrorist groups to the negotiating table needed constant support from the Union government. The CM also reminded the Union government that terrorist groups like United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) had only laid certain conditions, but had not completely refused to hold talks. Referring to persisting security problems in the State, as there was a rise in terrorist activities in areas bordering Assam, the CM blamed the Union government for comparatively ignoring Assam, in relation to states like Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir.

On June 18, the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT) observed its sixth ‘foundation day’ in Kokrajhar district of Assam, said media reports. Its president Dirgangra Basumatary inaugurated the function that was reportedly attended by approximately two hundred armed cadres of the outfit. Reports further said the BLT, on the occasion, also expressed the desire to reconsider its stand of not taking part in further negotiations with the Union government. Reports quoting Mainao Daimary, ‘central publicity secretary’ of the BLT, also said this change of stand follows an assurance by Union Home Minister L K Advani that the Union government too was in favour of a speedy resolution of the issue. Among other things, the BLT reiterated its stand on the boundary of the proposed Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) and the number of seats that it wants to be reserved for the Bodos. Besides, the BLT wants 278 villages in the vicinity and Bijni town to be added in the territorial expanse of the Bodoland Autonomous Council (BAC). It also wants 30 of the proposed 40 seats in the BTC to be reserved for the Bodos. Primarily, it is on these two issues that the government and the BLT differ.

According to a media report of June 20, approximately 25 Afghanistan-based Al Qaeda terrorists have infiltrated Assam, using its international border with Bangladesh. The incident reportedly occurred in the beginning June 2002. The security forces in Assam have been put on alert following this report. Some Al Qaeda terrorists are allegedly hiding in Bangladesh after the United States (US) security forces commenced operations in Afghanistan to arrest Osama bin Laden. Intelligence sources believe that they may cause subversive activities in collaboration with other Islamist fundamentalist outfits - Islamic United Reformation Protest of India, Muslim United Liberation Tigers of Assam (MULTA) and Muslim United Liberation Front of Assam (MULFA), among others. However, areas where these terrorists may operate remain unknown thus far. Officials suspect that the presence of these terrorists in India’s Northeast may be part of a larger plan of Pakistan’s external intelligence agency, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) to further destabilise the country.

According to a report of June 22, the National Democratic Front of Boroland's (NDFB's) top ranking cadres have allegedly stashed away huge amounts of money in various foreign banks. The money, allegedly extorted from local residents, businessmen and even various government departments in Assam was deposited under fake names. The report citing a bulletin published by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) also said its ‘commander-in-chief’ Ranjan Daimari, among others, has amassed huge fortunes. They also reportedly make lavish foreign trips. This also allegedly caused difference of opinion and resentment in the ranks of the outfit over financial mismanagement by its top leaders. The MHA bulletin also revealed that Hilarious Basumatary, one of the NDFB leaders, had alleged that Ranjan Daimari siphoned off an amount of Rs 1.32 crore in 1995-96 to be deposited in foreign banks in his account. To make deposits in foreign banks easier, these leaders convert Indian currency into some foreign currency, the American dollar or the Nepalese Rupee, preferably. The MHA document also said the NDFB had 7,500 US dollars and Rs 4.9 crore in its account in the year 1996-97. The amount increased manifold in subsequent years. The MHA document also cited figures of extortion made by the NDFB. The outfit allegedly extorted Rs 1.35 crore in 1994-95, Rs 2.82 crore in 1995-96 and Rs 4.43 crore in 1996-97 as ‘Bodoland tax’ from various sources, including tea estates, various government departments and non-Bodo traders in Bodo-majority areas of Assam. However, the security forces have largely restricted its activities since 1997 by keeping a vigilant eye on its actions.

According to a media report of June 27, the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT) claimed that its 'movement' is 'genuine'. A 'vision paper' released recently by the outfit reportedly said theirs’ was not an ethnic movement, or targeted against any particular community. It was rather a movement of the indigenous people of Assam to safeguard their own identity, the paper further maintained. The paper alleges that large-scale illegal inter-state and intra-state migration from Bangladesh, Nepal and other neighbouring States was the prime cause behind the current situation that the Bodos were facing. Bangladesh finds special mention in the BLT's paper. It says the situation there will go worse in the future. Along with the rising population, the paper holds, the strain felt on the economy of that country would be severe, and eventually it will effect the overall economic, social and environmental situation in the State. The paper also suggests ways by which illegal migration can be checked. It mentions, inter alia, strong determination and political will on the part of the leaders, genuine people's movement, and invitation to big business houses to invest in the State.

According to a media report of June 29, Karbi Anglong and North Cachar Hills districts of Assam are considered by various terrorist outfits as safe havens. The report quoting Inspector General of Police (IG) -Law and Order Sibabrata Kakati further said this was due to the geographical location of the two districts. The hilly terrain makes it difficult for the security forces to carry on their normal operations. The IG also said most of the terrorist outfits in Assam have their hideouts in Karbi Anglong district. He reportedly suggested that strong police networking is one way to improve the situation in Assam. He also alleged that most of the terrorist activities in the recent past in the district were the handiwork of Dima Halim Daogah (DHD). The outfit earlier allegedly had nexus with the National Socialist Council of Nagaland- Isak Muivah (NSCN-IM). Differences over sharing extortion money reportedly led to their separation and the outfit has since been on its own.

According to a media report, leaders of various non-Bodo organisations alleged that both the Union and Assam State governments were relenting to pressure from the Bodo Liberation Tigers (BLT). At a rally, organised by the Sanmilita Janagosthiya Sangram Samiti (SJSS) in Guwahati on June 30 they termed the creation of the Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) as a 'conspiracy'. The BLT, in 'connivance' with Union Home Minister L K Advani and Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, has conspired to reduce the majority non-Bodo population in the Lower Assam districts into a minority, they alleged. The rally also resolved to observe a 24-hour rail-and-road blockade if the government failed to take into notice the opinion of non-Bodo leaders as regards the BTC before July 16. The leaders who addressed the rally included Hareswar Barman, Brojen Mahanta and Hafiz Rashid Ahmed Choudhury. SJSS is a platform of various non-Bodo organisations.
