The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) expresses concern at reports of
people of North Eastern origin leaving from certain places where they
are working or studying and returning to their home states. Such
movement has taken place from Bangalore and certain other places sparked
off by rumours or alleged threats.
Immediate steps should be taken to assure the people of North Eastern
origin of their safety and security wherever they are residing. The
state governments and administration should take prompt measures for
this. The recent violence in the Bodoland territorial region in Assam
has localized reasons and any attempts to rouse feelings in other
parts of the country should be firmly curbed. The Polit Bureau of the
CPI(M) appeals to all sections of the people to foil any moves to
disturb amity amongst the people and maintain unity and peace.
