Through the
Deputy Commissioner, Kokrajhar, BTC (Assam)
Subject: A memorandum for urgent intervention to stop
the on-going communal clashes in Bodoland Territorial Council and other parts
of Assam.
Most respected Sir,
With
reference to the subject cited above, we the undersigned for and on behalf of
Peoples’ Joint Action Committee for Boroland Movement (PJACBM) would like to
draw the following serious facts for your kind information and necessary urgent
intervention.
As
you are aware of the fact that presently unfortunate incidents of on-going communal clashes
between the Indigenous Boro people and migrants settlers belonging to religious
Muslim Community are rupturing in the Bodoland Territorial Council areas and
other parts of western Assam. The incident broke out suddenly and took communal
color following the gruesome murders of four Boro youths by some unidentified
miscreants belonging to Muslim Community at Jaipur, which is just one kilometer
away from the Kokrajhar Police station on 19 July at about 8 pm, reportedly
instigated by some armed anti-social elements who have come from other parts of
BTC and took shelter to deliberately create social tension inciting for
communal violence between the local Boros and the migrant shelters belonging to
Muslim community.
That
Sir, the situation is very fragile and burning which have already claimed more
than 20 innocent lives belonging to both the communities, several villages are
burnt down and more than sixty thousand peoples are now taking settler in more
than 26 relief camps after being forced
to flee their homes for their lives. The present situation appeared to be out
of control as the incidents of violence are rather growing than being brought under control due to lack
of adequate security arrangement and total failure of the local Administration
to tackle the situation effectively.
That
Sir we strongly feel that the outbreak of violence is mainly due to a deep political conspiracy
hatched by certain anti-social elements who have been conspiring to divide the people in community lines and
to create communal violence to destabilise the emotional integration, peace and
tranquility among the different sections of the people living in the present
BTC areas. The formation of so called Non-Boro Suraskya Samity and its activities
in connivance with its communal member organizations have been propagating and
instigating to directly attack the Boros in the Bodoland Territorial Council
areas since the formation of the said organization with their clear motives of carrying
out hatred campaigns against a particular community i.e. the Boros which is
most unfortunate, condemnable and against the human rights of the peace loving
Indigenous Boro people to co-exist in peace with others. It is very unfortunate to see such communal
organizations in a democratic country like of ours which are against the spirit
of a plural society and threat to the unity, peace and tranquility.
We
also strongly feel that the present situation is compounded due to an evil
design and a systematic deep political conspiracy of certain anti tribal
elements not only to defunct the present BTC administration but also to
sabotage the on-going forty five years peaceful, democratic movement of the
Boro Indigenous people for separate state of Boroland and to derail the
on-going peace dialoged between the
NDFB (P) and the Government of India.
That
Sir, we would like to affirm you that the ongoing communal clash is nothing but
a direct result of the conspiracy and provocation of the said communal forces
who have stooped so low to create a serious low and order situation and
subsequent communal violence threatening the lives and properties of the common
peoples living in the areas in perfect peace and harmony in the past.
We
therefore, on behalf of 52 member organization of the Peoples’ Joint Action
Committee and on behalf of the peace loving people of the proposed separate
state of Boroland, strongly urge your office to urgently intervene in the matters
to:
1)
stop the
burning situation of communal clashes immediately;
2)
arrest the culprits involved in fomenting the
communal clashes;
3)
order a CBI inquiry to investigate the whole
matters leading to communal violence;
4)
provide adequate security arrangement in
sensitive areas and to provide immediate sufficient relief materials including
food, drinking water, clothes and
medicines in the relief camps of communal clashes belonging to both the
communities;
5)
provide adequate compensation to the bereaved
families and injured victims of communal clashes.
Looking forward to having your urgent intervention.
Sincerely
yours,
(Jebra Ram Muchahary) (Usuf Ali) (Nitul Bharali) (Matilal Barman)
