Paresh faces flak

By AT News |

ULFA supremo Paresh Baruah draws criticism from a number of parties, organizations and individuals for threatening to the Tinsukia protestors of dire consequences.

“Paresh Baruah is not our ruler. Why does not he come out of the jungle?,” Ashish Kumar told Assam Times who hit the streets in Makum on Wednesday.

Talking to Assam Times Deepika Das, a college student said every citizen of the country has the right to live anywhere in the country.

“Those who are threatening the Hindi-speaking people themselves are hiding on the soil of Bangladesh, Myanmar, Bhutan. Do they have any courage to face the people?”

ULFA supremo Paresh Baruah on Thursday asked the Hindi-speaking protestors in Tinsukia to tender apology for accusing the outfit of killing the local trader and his daughter in Bijulibon.

He further threatened to kill the Hindi-speaking people if they refuse to tender apology.
