Serial  blasts rattle State
ULFA punches holes in  Assam security shield


Our Bureau
With inputs from Guwahati, Tinsukia, Dibrugarh, Sivasagar,  Jorhat,
Lakhimpur, Tingkhong
Jan 22: Barely ten  minutes after IGP (SB) Khagen Sarma claimed that
the situation  in the State was normal, the outlawed ULFA today
triggered  serial explosions throughout the State apparently
targeting  security personnel and gas pipelines. Today's strikes by
the  rebel group have proved beyond doubt that the Republic Day
security arrangement in the poll-bound State is not as tight as
claimed by the State police administration.

Around 5.55  this evening, suspected ULFA militants lobbed a powerful
grenade  near Gauhati Commerce College in the city where security
personnel were on their routine checking. Police constable  Damodar
Das, CRPF jawans Ajay Kumar Dro, BG Krishna, Dado Jadav and Purno
Boro were injured in the attack. Minutes later,  a grenade was hurled
in front the Assam Police Reserve at AT  Road in the city. One Rahim
Ali succumbed to his injuries in the  hospital. Fifteen minutes
later, while a team of security  personnel was in a search operation
in the police reserve area,  militants detonated an IED, planted in a
requisitioned bus,  injuring Panbazar OC Mahendra Rajkhowa and
constables Jogen  Tisso and Rafiqul Hussain. DSP Mirinda Kadam Ingtpi
had a narrow  escape.

Meanwhile, in  the first instance of militant attack within Jorhat
district  this year, suspected ULFA militants triggered a blast in
the  precincts of the ASTC building here around 7.05 p.m, injuring a
person identified as Krishna Das. The casualty was minimum as  there
was not many travellers within the ASTC complex at that  hour.

In yet another  strike, two gas pipelines -one at Chetiapathar under
Chabua PS  and the other at Bokulia Chariali under Duliajan PS - were
blown up successively this evening. No casualty has been  reported so
far.

A late night  report said that yet another gas pipeline running
through Lengri  TE under Tengakhat PS in Dibrugarh district was blown
up by  militants around 9 p.m.

Last night, the  ULFA blew up a power tower of NEEPCO at Bhoju in Sivasagar.

At Konwar Gaon  near Lakhimpur, ULFA militants blew up a transformer
near the Madharam Gogoi LP School around 7.15 p.m. yesterday. Another
transformer was blown up at Hindugaon Tiniali just 30 minutes  later.
Three security personnel - Ramen Kalita, Riten Hajong  and Mukesh
Kumar - sustained injuries in the strike. Another  gas pipeline was
blown up by militants at Mahmora Silgrant under  Namrup PS in
Dibrugarh district last night.

The proscribed  outfit broke the lull of about 100 days -the longest
so far  -by blowing up an IOC pipeline at Dalgaon hours before Prime
Minister Dr Manmohan Singh was to arrive in the State. The ULFA  had
designated the People's Consultative Group (PCG) to hold  the first
round of talks with the Prime Minister on October 26  to prepare the
ground for direct talks between it and Government  peace negotiators.
Since then the outfit had refrained from  indulging in subversive
activities.
