A few ULFA workers were arrested by police in connection with the recent bomb blast in Boko. One of the arrested ULFA cadre spoke in NETV that he had no other option left than joining ULFA. He said that he had been unemployed for a while. When he approached a bank for loan for starting a small business, the manager asked for bribe of Rs 5000 from him. He said in such situations, all youths of Assam will join ULFA one day. That was quite a revealing statement of the reason why ULFA is getting the new recruits. Really, the corruption in the system and the large scale unemployment is luring people to become terrorists, where they can atleast feed themselves.
Any remark or thought on this?
