Ulfa I  

 In a swift and well-planned operation executed by the Indian Army Intelligence Agencies at Meghalaya-Assam-Bangladesh Border, dreaded hardcore ULFA-I leader SS Col Drishti Rajkhowa and four accomplices surrendered along with a huge quantity of arms
 

Over the past decades, not only NSCN-K but also insurgent groups from other states of India’s Northeast had taken shelter in Myanmar — in violation of  the ceasefire agreement of a few rebels with the Burmese government that the dispensation had entered after providing them shelter

According to reports, the gunfight took place along the Assam-Nagaland border, as the security forces raided the militants' hideout.

Since September 1 at least 11 people from Tinsukia and Udalguri districts have joined the banned outfit

'Assam will burn if they continue to push the bill. If the bill is passed in Parliament, the situation will worsen and the recruitment for ULFA-I, the anti-talk faction, will increase,' Anup Chetia said

The Trinamool Congress, which has been vocal about the incident, kept the pot boiling with a delegation from Bengal reaching the Dibrugarh airport on Sunday morning to visit Tinsukia and interact with the affected families

Six men were abducted and shot at by suspected militants at Kheroni in Tinsukia district. Four of them died on the spot, one at a hospital and the sixth is injured.
