More Assam men go missing, probably to join liberation outfit ULFA-I

Guwahati, March 27, 2023 (PPI-OT): Three persons from Indian state of Assam have gone missing in another state, Tamil Nadu, with parents suspecting that they might have joined the United Liberation Front of Assam-Independent (ULFA-I), which fighting for the liberation of Assam from India. Searching for good jobs outside the state of Assam has turned into a nightmare these days amid back to back missing cases being reported.

Earlier, two persons from Assam’s Tinsukia went missing after they went to Kerela for job. Previously, there were reports that youths from Assam were joining the United Liberation Front of Assam-Independent (ULFA-I) whose core demand is sovereignty of Assam. “Historically Assam was never part of India. Assam was a nation beaming with pride and sovereignty, which was later colonised by foreign invaders,” ULFA-I Chief, Paresh Baruah said in a statement. “This, he added, is legitimate and a historically correct fact, which needs to be brought into limelight. “The 42-years old struggle for Independence is still continuing to restore Asom to its former glory. In addition, the sovereignty of Asom will never be compromised in the year to come,” the ULFA-I Chief said.

The statement came a day after Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the dialogue process with ULFA-I must be taken forward by striking a balance between the outfit’s “core demand” for sovereignty and the ambit of the Constitution. Thousands people of Assam have been killed by the Indian forces during military and search operations.
