Instead of supporting the militants group they are victimized of ongoing chaos situation in area. So, we being the civil society of this area have appealed to concern government to release unconditionally both the arrested teachers on humanity ground to bring peaceful situation in the area by withdrawing leveled section on them under different IPC.

The forum appeals to the government of Assam not to harass or atrocities on common people of this area in the name of militant operation or hunting.

Since 1999 to till today six innocent teachers along with many civilian were killed by militant groups. Whenever militant groups started to kill one after another those people that time in Bengtol area not even a single security personal had not been strengthen to give protection to common people. Till today culprits those who had involved behind the heinous act even not a single person has been arrested nor has victimized family received justice being a citizen of democratic state, the forum said.

None of the victim families have got justice till today nor had a single case been registered by Police. An administrative has also failed to give security to protect the life of common people of this area. In some cases the local people has witnessed the involvement of security personal instead of giving security to common people. By witnessing activities of the administrative and militant groups, every citizens of Bengtol area have bearing fear psychosis in their mind and also they feel doubt to trust on security system of Assam government because common citizens are living under insecure situation,the forum said.
