In an attack on a police jeep carrying civillians, the outlawed United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) killed seven people, including two officers of paramilitary forces. One ULFA rebel was also killed in the incident that took place near a village in Tinsukia district, 600 km east of the State capital, Guwahati. The incident comes as part of ULFA's stepped up activity that has claimed the life of one Minister some time back while another narrowly escaped two days earlier. Troops in Assam have been put on maximum alert, with army police and paramilitary forces launching a joint counter-insurgency operation in militant-infested areas.

Chief Minister Prafulla Kumar Mahanta categorically stated that as long as Indian insurgent groups were granted safe passage and bases by neighbouring countries––Bhutan, Bangladesh and Mayanmar––it would be difficult to root out militancy in the affected regions.

Mahanta reiterated his government’s commitment to resolving the problem through dialogue and had assured the ULFA leadership that they would be provided security if they came for negotiations.

Meanwhile the Assam Government is in a peculiar situation after the Central Government's reluctance to introduce any recruitment schemes for absorbing surrendered militants. The issue has assumed urgency since the training course initiated by the State government for the first batch of surrendered militants of the United Liberation Front of Assam (SULFA) expires in May 2000, and the Centre is yet to come out with any package to absorb them. The State's Home Secretary has rushed to the Ministry of Home Affairs to plead its case, as failure of the government to absorb them would render the initiatives taken by the State meaningless and provide an opportunity for resurgence of militancy in the State. A similar surrender package offered by the Meghalaya government has failed to evoke any response from the militant groups operating in the State. This was stated by Chief Minister E K Mawlong while replying to a question in the State Assembly, on March 31. According to the Chief Minister, not a single militant in the State has so far surrendered under the scheme for surrender-cum-rehabilitation announced by the government in September 1999.
