Normal life remains paralyzed on Friday in Tinsukia district following a 24 hour bandh called by the Tai Ahom Yuva Parishad in protest against the assault on one of their leader.Roads in most parts of the district remained completely deserted as vehicles refused to ply during this period. Shops and markets, schools and colleagues, banks and offices remained closed under impact of the bandh.CRPF jawans on Thursday assaulted Tai Ahom Yuva Parishad’s Digboi branch president Prashanta Buragohain at Digboi bereft of any reason.

According to allegation, the police have released Narayan Adhikary even after he was detained acting on the complaint of diesel theft from the residence of Sambhu Singh in the Segunbari area.It is alleged that police spared Adhikari only because of his comfortable relations with a circle of senior policemen apart from a few district administration officials.
