Curfew in Assam town
Special Correspondent
Guwahati: Curfew was imposed in Rangapara on Wednesday as supporters of a bandh called by the All-Assam Santhal Students’ Union went on the rampage in the Sonitpur district town and attacked a police station. An unruly mob from nearby tea gardens, which made attempts to enter the town to enforce the bandh, dispersed only after the police resorted to blank firing.
After a discussion with editors of newspapers and the electronic media at a meeting convened by Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi here, it was decided that the government would hold broad-based discussions with the ethnic communities demanding ST status. He said the government would help the ethnic communities if they formed a committee, which could adduce reasons before the Registrar-General of India why they should be included in the ST list.
