  • The situation is not much better at the relief camp in the high school campus here, where 2,193 persons, including 1,400 women and children, have been lodged. "We have nowhere to return to. Our entire village has been reduced to ashes," said Bimoli Brahma, a mother of three from Ikrabari village, about 6 km from here.

    Adding to the problem is the acute shortage of officers to run the administration in Udalguri, a newly created district that has endured the worst of the ongoing violence.
