Reverse migration in relief camps

With initiative of some people, now reverse migration of those who fled their homes after violence in Bodoland Territorial Council area has started.
The day violence broke out, population in the relief camps of Dhubri district was more than 1.5 lakhs but only after a week it has started getting thinner with some Bodo villagers asking their Muslim neighbours to return home.
Take the example of Laliyagaon a village of Bodos in minority-dominated areas of Dhubri district where not single house was harmed as Muslim villagers stood defending their neighbours’s house and belongings even after families being shifted to police reserve.
Similar was the story of Barshigaon where a Muslim village head was guarding the houses of Bodos who were taken to safer location by the district administration.
Now minority villagers are calling them to return home. Even hundreds of families who were taking shelter in relief camps at Bilashipara have left for their respective villages in BTC areas on Friday.
The scared villagers had fled their homes out of panic but there was no attack or threat on them to flee.
In Tamarhat area of the district hundreds of Hindu families were seen to have been providing food and drinking water in relief camps to those Muslim refugees who fled their homes out of panic.
Some businessmen are taking care of adolescent and children in the camps at Tamarhat by supplying baby food for minors.
Western Assam DIG Surendar Kumar also confirmed that many families which fled their homes out of panic have started returning to their villages as their neighbours came calling them to return.
He said that hundreds of families are also willing to go back as it was harvesting season and their stay in camp may harm their farms and cattle, which they left behind.
He also admitted that a large number of people confessed that they fled their homes out of panic only.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
