By Correspondent

BONGAIGAON, Aug 9 - Opposition party MCLAs has decided to stage a sit-in demonstration in front of BTC Secretariat on August 17 demanding dissolution of the Village Council Development Committees and Territorial Council-level Co-ordination Committees, allegedly formed unilaterally by the ruling party Bodoland Peoples� Front (BPF).

The Governor has already ordered dissolution of these committees, but the ruling party has not yet any action. It may be mentioned here that the Opposition MCLAs had met the Governor on August 3 and urged him to take step in this matter within a week. Since the time period given to the Governor would expire tomorrow (August 10) and the committees remains to be dissolved, the Opposition MCLAs have decided to protest on August 17, a press note stated.
