Kokrajhar virtually turns into a security fotress just before the stock-taking visit of prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Saturday. Army, police and para military forces are on round-the-clock vigil in Kokrajhar to disperse the miscreants waiting to strike during the high profile visit. The situation in Kokrajhar is by and large normal. There is hardly any report of major incident during the last 12 hours. The district authorities have relaxed curfew in Kokrajhar from early in the morning.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh along with UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi are all set to visit in Kokrajhar on Saturday.

Accompanied by Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, Dr Singh and Gandhi will straightly leave for Kokrajhar to take stock of the situation. Apart from reviewing the situation, they are expected to visit a few relief camps to oversee relief works. Home Minister P Chidambaram will visit Kokrajhar and adjoining districts on Monday.
Caught in a barrage of controversy, Congress set up a 10-member coordination committee to look into the Kokrajhar violence. The panel has a few critics of Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi who are unhappy with the chief minister’s role. Earlier on Thursday evening, a team of Muslim MPs, including Congressmen, met Home Minister P Chidambaram and said they had lost faith in the Gogoi government.
In yet another major embarrassment, a minor boy and a 60-year-old man died in two different relief camps in Bilasipara on Friday. The district administration is yet to ascertain the cause. The relief camps set up for the refugees are overcrowded. A section of camp inmates alleged insufficient food, drinking water and medicines.
Central paramilitary forces are fanning in the violence-hit Kokrajhar, Chirang and other adjoining areas to rein in the strings of clashes that claimed at least 60 people during the last 6 days. Of the 65 paramilitary companies ordered, 53 companies have reached Assam so far to bring the situation under control. But the focus is concentrated on relief and rescue a day ahead of the prime minister’s visit.
A day before prime minister’s visit, the Centre on Friday rushed two teams of doctors and nurses to Kokrajhar and Chirang to boost efforts to provide relief and medical help to the refugees. In a video conference with Assam Chief Secretary Naba Kumar Das, Cabinet Secretary Ajit Seth reviewed the relief and medical arrangements for the victims.
According to official sources, two teams of physician, gynaecologist, paediatrician, public health specialists, resident doctors and nurses have arrived in the violence hit areas on Friday night. Nearly two lakh people have taken shelter in 250 relief camps in the five riot-hit districts of Kokrajhar, Bongaigaon, Chirang, Baksa and Dhubri.
