KOKRAJHAR: The All Bodo Women’s
Welfare Federation, along with the
women wing of Bodoland People’s Front (BPF), on Sunday staged a rally against the killing of
Priya Basumatary by NDFB(S) militants. The protestors also criticized the recent highhandedness of security forces on villagers at Ultapani in Chirang district.
The federation sought a high-level inquiry into the incident and exemplary punishment for Priya’s killers.
It also demanded that the security forces stop public atrocities in the name of nabbing extremists and a permanent solution to the crisis. It added that recent incidents, like the ones at Ultapani should not be repeated.
