| [TIMESOFINDIA.INDIATIMES] The corpse count in the Bodoland violence rose to 76 on Wednesday with the recovery of more bodies, Adivasi miscreants killing five Bodos in Chirang and Sonitpur districts and death of three Adivasi protesters in police firing in Sonitpur district. Over 5,000 people belonging to Adivasi and Bodo communities have left their homes and taken shelter in schools and churches in the affected districts. State agriculture minister Nilamani Sen Deka, who was in Kokrajhar to oversee setting up of relief camps, said six relief camps have been set up in which there are about 3,000 inmates from both the communities. Security forces have launched an operation to flush out 80-odd cadres of the Songbijit faction of National Democratic Front of Boroland (NDFB) who are responsible for Tuesday's carnage. |
