AASU flays Gogoi over land deal

By Staff reporter

GUWAHATI, May 4 � The All Assam Students� Union has lodged a strong protest against the �anti-Assam� stand of Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi in the Indo-Bangla land deal, and burnt copies of the official letter sent by the Government of Assam to the Union government on the issue.

In a statement, the AASU said the State government�s support to the land swap deal was a clear indicator of Tarun Gogoi�s vote bank politics. �Another recent official letter to the Union government on this matter shows that Gogoi is ready to give away Assam�s land to Bangladesh to get some votes from illegal Bangladeshis,� the statement said.

The student body reiterated its demand for fencing the porous Indo-Bangladesh border with barbed wires.
