The anti-talk factions of outlawed National Democratic Front of Bodoland and United Liberation Front of Asom have chalked out massive subversive plans to target security forces, central government installations and train services in the run up to the Independence Day in Assam.
Disclosing that outlawed NDFB rebels are trying to smuggle in explosives and grenades from Dimapur in Nagaland, authoritative security sources told this newspaper that Northeast Frontier Railways has already advised to suspend the night running of trains and stop the movement of wagons carrying petroleum products. The railway authorities have been advised to take necessary precaution in running the passenger trains during the day time.
Indicating that trains could be the soft target for the NDFB and Ulfa rebels, security sources did not rule out possibility of militants targeting the public places. Though, necessary steps have been taken to foil the subversive plan of the militant outfits, security sources said that recent success of Ulfa and NDFB rebels in targeting CRPF and SSB in two separate attacks have also come as moral booster for the cadres of the outlawed organisations.
